Dispute Resolution

What we do
Our role is to provide you with the information you need to deliver first class legal services to your clients. We write overviews to illustrate the headline points of each of our topics. We write KnowHow, in the form of detailed practice notes, to guide you through the key practical issues of each topic, and clearly drafted precedents with drafting notes. To make it easy to find related items, we link these to the relevant Butterworths commentary, consolidated legislation, cases and forms that we have selected for each topic.  Our Professional Support Lawyers review and summarise, on a daily basis, any case law and legal developments that change the way you practice. Key developments or amendments are incorporated immediately within the product. To save practitioners' time, these changes can be provided by way of a weekly update email.

The PSL way
It is easy to access information on the topic you are interested in.

For example, summary judgment:

  • Click on 'Summary judgment and strike out' in 'Litigation Practice and Procedure' which takes you straight to our overview. This gives a short summary of the topic
  • Click on the KnowHow tab and select the practice note you need.
  • For example 'Summary judgment - application by the defendant'
  • In the practice note, the right hand hyperlinks will take you directly through to the CPR, cases and legislation
  • Click on the 'Return to Summary judgment and strike out' link at the top of the practice note. Then click on the Precedents tab and select the document you need, for example 'Witness statement in support of application for summary judgment'. From here you can
  • View the precedent and drafting notes relating to each paragraph
  • Download the precedent into Word and print off the precedent or drafting notes
  • Click on the 'Return to Summary judgment and strike out' link. The cases tab lists all the applicable key cases for the topic as selected by our Professional Support Lawyers
