English Law and Standard Terms

This book features a useful and practical set of Terms and Conditions. The third volume in the series „European Standard Terms and Conditions“ focuses on England. It is a key contribution to the development of cross-border standard terms across the EU. Adrian Jack is a barrister in England as well as a Rechtsanwalt in Germany. With this book Jack gives a thorough insight into the different legal cultures: the clash between the English common law and the European i. e. German civil system is painted vividly. Jack discusses the difficulties of adapting a set of Continental terms for use in England, and gives the reader a helping hand in developing his own Terms and Conditions.
