UK Civil Procedure Rules

The UK Civil Procedure Rules (CPR) are a set of legal guidelines that govern how civil court cases are conducted in England and Wales. They ensure cases are managed fairly, efficiently, and consistently by outlining procedures for initiating claims, exchanging information, and progressing through different stages of litigation. The rules aim to facilitate justice by providing clear deadlines, methods for resolving disputes without court, and procedures for presenting evidence. Overall, CPR serves as a roadmap for lawyers and courts to handle civil disputes systematically and predictably.
