This book explores the complex landscape of costs and funding of civil justice.Access to civil justice continues to be undermined by State retrenchment of legal aid budgets, increases in procedural costs, the complexity of court procedures, and severe delays in the dispensation of justice. This has resulted in a shift from public to private funding of civil litigation, and the emergence of new business models and forms of private justice. The book explores the dynamic landscape of legal costs and financing from 3 perspectives: regulatory frameworks in public and private funding; new trends and challenges in contemporary legal financing; and the transformative potential of alternative dispute resolution (ADR) and online dispute resolution (ODR) procedures to streamline civil justice processes and expand access to justice.By addressing the intersectionality of legal, economic, political, market and social dynamics, the book helps readers gain a better understanding of the inherent complexity of costs, funding, and their implications for access to justice. This timely resource offers academics, policymakers, and practitioners valuable insights into the dynamics that shape the current state and future prospects of civil justice in Europe to help create sustainable pathways for improved access to justice.

European civil procedure has emerged as an independent and dynamic field of policy making, research and teaching. Influenced by human rights law, EU consumer law, and resulting from the extended EU competence in judicial cooperation since the Treaty of Amsterdam, national procedural systems have been increasingly Europeanised.This volume offers a comprehensive overview of the main developments shaping civil justice in Europe. It analyses the harmonisation of cross-border litigation through EU regulations on jurisdiction, recognition and enforcement, service of documents, and taking of evidence, as well as the creation of European procedures such as the Order for Payment, Small Claims Procedure, and Account Preservation Order.Beyond these core instruments, the book explores collective redress, ADR and ODR, specialised courts, legal aid, costs and funding, and soft-law harmonisation. It concludes with perspectives on EU enlargement, non-European jurisdictions, and the broader challenges facing civil justice today.
