APIL damages series - Proving damages – the claimant lawyer’s basic task

APIL CPD:
1 hour

(Please note that the number of CPD hours may be subject to change)

The claimant lawyer in a personal injury or clinical negligence claim has a difficult task in making sure that damages can be claimed fully and properly, whilst at the same time not inflating expectations and putting the client in danger of allegations of dishonesty.

The webinar looks at the challenges facing practitioners having to prove damages at trial.

It looks at those cases where claimants have failed to establish damage, or key heads of loss and the practical steps that can be taken to ensure that losses are established at trial

It also looks at the dangers of claiming damages that can not, in fact, be proven. These include the risk of an allegation of fundamental dishonesty

  • The “pitfalls” of damages claim
  • Schedules of damages
  • Learning from other people’s mistakes… 
  • Proving pain and suffering
  • Proving loss of earnings
  • Claims for care
  • Taking care to protect the client
