PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Understanding Property Law provides a background to an area of law which is notoriously inaccessible. The work:

  • Uses accessible language to highlight the variety of legal problems which legislation strives to address
  • Provides an examination of how the practices of the past have shaped the development and form of modern land law
  • Stresses the role of lawyers in the transactions – such as sale, gift and inheritance - in which their clients become involved
  • Analyses the practical aspect to lawyers work, providing a necessary complement to the emphasis on legislation and adjudication found in most textbooks
  • Incorporates legislative developments including the Land Registration Act 2002
