🇬🇧 United Kingdom • England & Wales • 1 plans
England & Wales matter plans cover proceedings governed by English law across the full court hierarchy. Civil litigation plans are structured around the Civil Procedure Rules 1998 (CPR), including Pre-Action Protocols, Part 7 and Part 8 claim procedures, case management conferences, and enforcement. Corporate and commercial plans address Companies Act 2006 obligations, share purchase agreements, commercial leases under the Landlord and Tenant Act 1954, and TUPE transfers under the Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) Regulations 2006. Employment plans follow the ACAS Code of Practice and Employment Tribunal procedural rules. Property conveyancing plans reflect the Land Registration Act 2002, SDLT obligations, and the Law Society Conveyancing Protocol. Each plan maps key deadlines, role assignments, and filing requirements for efficient matter progression from instruction through to completion.
