Shareholder Actions

This work brings all the possible actions against a company or its directors under statute or common-law together and helps navigate through what can be difficult to understand. Includes a general discussion of the nature of a company and its relationship with the shareholders, mainly from a UK perspective but also provides some comparative details of the way things are done on Australia, Canada and South Africa. Useful for students as it is an academic work in parts but also useful for practitioners advising on potential remedies for alleged harm caused by a company. 2007 edition is up-to-date with all Companies Act 2006 procedures. Recommended.

Bought this book, as a layman, to learn about a specific element of the law.It is well written so as to be relatively easy for a layman to read but has a wealth of detail and cross references to precedent so as to satisfy the professional practitioner. It is very helpful in dealing with the problems that may arise in separating from a business relationship.Recommended for the involved layman and legal beagles alike.
