The book provides practitioners with answers to questions such as:
•What form do I use?
•What fee do I pay?
•What does my evidence need to cover?
•Which court should I file at?
•Who do I need to serve?
•What will the judge be looking for?
This edition also contains new precedents for claims under section 423, Insolvency Act 1986 in the wake of Moffat v Moffat [2021] BPIR 1309 and Manolete Partners v Hayward & Barrett Holdings [2021] BPIR 427.
