Civil Procedure Rules (CPR)

The Civil Procedure Rules (CPR) are a set of guidelines used in England and Wales to govern how civil court cases are processed. They aim to ensure that legal proceedings are fair, efficient, and accessible to everyone. The rules cover various aspects, including how to start a case, the exchange of information between parties, and the conduct of hearings. By providing a structured framework, the CPR helps to reduce delays and encourages a resolution of disputes without unnecessary complexity. Overall, they strive to make the legal system more transparent and user-friendly for all involved.
