Long considered the most valuable, practical desk set for the general practitioner, Medina's Bostwick is an 11-volume New York general civil practice forms set. The broad array of forms addresses every major area that a general practitioner is likely to cover in his or her practice. The multiplicity of practice-tested forms (more than 4200) ensures that the practitioner is likely to find precisely the form he or she needs in a specific area.

The set is divided into five major parts: Civil Practice Law and Rules (CPLR), Civil Litigation, Surrogate's Court Practice, Appellate Practice, and Forms of Instruments. The first three (CPLR, Civil Litigation, and Surrogate's Court Practice) are litigation-related areas for which Medina's provides sample complaints, answers, affidavits, notices of motion, petitions, orders, etc. Appellate Practice provides the requisite forms to bring a successful appeal to the New York Appellate Division or Court of Appeals. The Forms of Instruments provides numerous transactional forms that a civil practice attorney is likely to use, from an attorney retainer agreement to a lease, deed, will, or trust. A more complete look at Medina's coverage shows:

(1) Civil Practice Law and Rules (CPLR) (forms keyed to specific sections of the CPLR relevant to pleadings, service, motion practice, disclosure, accelerated judgments, trial motions, enforcement of judgments, arbitration, proceedings against public body or officer, attachment, and much more)
(2) Civil Litigation (forms relevant to enforcing an attorney's lien, debtor and creditor actions, actions based on Uniform Commercial Code (UCC), actions based on Mental Hygiene Law, injunction, child support, separation/annulment/divorce, mechanic's liens, real property actions (mortgage foreclosure, partition, rent strike, etc.), worker's compensation, vehicular negligence, actions relating to Insurance Law, and much more)
(3) Surrogate's Court Practice (forms coverage relevant to estate administration, probate, guardianship, ancillary estate administration, claims against estate, accounting for the estate, filing the estate tax)
(4) Appellate Practice
(5) Forms of Instruments (transactional forms to be used in civil practice such as affidavits, assignments, attorney retainer agreements, bonds, security agreements, antenuptial and matrimonial agreements, powers of attorney, contracts for sale of real property, deeds, mortgages, leases, trusts, wills, and much more).

Each chapter begins with a brief practice checklist, which covers the salient legal issues to be considered in a particular area, with relevant statutory cross-references and practice tips.
