Judgecraft (Pre-release)
Price: £49.99 Prices inclusive of VAT.
A practical handbook for everyone who is required to make decisions that affect other people’s lives, by two of the UK’s most experienced practitioners in judicial and quasi-judicial decision-making.
Decision-making sits at the heart of justice, fairness and organisational integrity. Across courts, tribunals, regulatory bodies, workplaces and institutions of every kind, individuals are required to weigh evidence, resolve disputed facts and reach fair, reasoned conclusions. Yet despite the importance of that responsibility, many decision-makers receive little formal training in how to approach the task. This book is designed to close that gap.

Winning in Family Business Disputes
Price: £49.99 Prices inclusive of VAT.
A practical guide for family business owners, founders, successors and the advisers who sit alongside them, written by a barrister and mediator who has grown up inside a family business and who now resolves family business disputes for a living.
Most family business disputes do not begin as legal problems. They begin as moments. A glance across a boardroom that lasts a beat too long. A decision taken without consulting someone who used to be consulted. A long-held assumption that the next generation will run the business, never properly tested. By the time the lawyers are involved, the moment is years in the past, and the dispute on paper is rarely about what the dispute is actually about.
Written by Robin Somerville, practising barrister, accredited commercial mediator, accredited workplace investigator and fee-paid judge, with extensive experience of shareholder, partnership and family business disputes.
