This new title is an abridged version of the highly respected reference volume, Williston & Rolls Court Forms, 3rd Edition loose-leaf. It includes Chapters 68 to 74 of the original text which focus on the various aspects of costs in a litigation matter – from security for costs, to assessments of costs, to methods of enforcing the obligation to pay.

Each of the seven chapters in this spin-off book includes the latest forms and precedents, commentary and practice notes related to each topic. Litigation lawyers will undoubtedly find this content and format to be especially practical and insightful. The forms and precedents are also available on a USB stick for quick and easy access, enabling lawyers to save time and money by not having to draft these documents from scratch.
