Overview

Nominated in the Law Book of the Year category at the Irish Law Awards 2012. I would recommend this book to every practising accountant and solicitor Tom Moore, Accountancy Ireland October 1991 p.31 (of the 1st edition). The second edition brings this work up to date. In particular, the EC Insolvency Regulation 2000 will be examined in an extensive chapter which promises to be the most comprehensive review yet, in Ireland on this subject and will make this publication an absolute must have not only for lawyers in the personal insolvency field, but also for those in the corporate insolvency area. In addition, the EU Commission Paper of 2007 on Bankruptcy and the September 2009 Law Reform Commission Consultation Paper on Personal Debt Management and Debt Enforcement are examined in considerable detail in the context of future reform of the existing legislation. Numerous practical precedents are also provided.
