Serious Personal Injury Litigation: A Case Study 32:38

לפני 26 weeks32:38

32:38

In this episode, Louis Browne KC and Fiona Tinsley discuss a recent case involving a claimant who sustained very serious injuries in a car accident. They explore the challenges of managing a client's expectations and the importance of expert evidence in determining causation and quantum. The claimant had a significant pre-existing medical history, which complicated the assessment of her injuries. The case settled at a joint settlement meeting. The conversation highlights the need for thorough analysis of medical records and effective communication with the claimant throughout the process. Takeaways Managing a client's expectations is crucial in high-value personal injury claims, as the final settlement will likely not match the sums claimed. Thorough analysis of medical records and expert evidence is essential to determine causation and accurately assess the quantum of damages. In cases involving pre-existing medical conditions, it is important to establish the extent to which, if at all the accident exacerbated or contributed to the claimant's accident related injuries. Effective communication with the claimant, including explaining complex medical issues in layperson's terms, helps them understand the process and make informed decisions. Joint settlement meetings are often an effective way to resolve personal injury claims, allowing all parties to discuss the issues and reach a fair settlement.

Navigating the Complexities of Military Claims 35:12

לפני 32 weeks35:12

35:12

In this podcast episode, Chris Barnes KC and Stuart McCracken discuss military claims and highlight the differences between military and civilian claims. They cover topics such as liability, quantum, loss of earnings, loss of pension, rehabilitation, the Armed Forces Compensation Scheme (AFCS), specific types of injuries, and the importance of expert evidence. They also emphasise the need for specialised knowledge and support in handling military claims. Takeaways Military claims differ from civilian claims in terms of liability and quantum. Fitness standards in the military can impact the severity of injuries and the loss of a military career. Valuing losses in military claims, such as loss of earnings and pension, is more complex than in civilian claims. Rehabilitation plays a crucial role in military claims, but support can be lacking after discharge. The Armed Forces Compensation Scheme (AFCS) provides compensation for injuries during service and should be considered alongside civil claims. Specific types of injuries, such as non-freezing cold injuries and pelvic stress fractures, are more common in the military. Expert evidence is essential in military claims to determine career paths, discharge prospects, and the value of benefits. Bullying claims and heat exhaustion are other issues that can arise in military claims. Handling military claims requires specialised knowledge and support. Chapters 00:00 Introduction to Military Claims 01:32 Differences Between Military and Civilian Claims 06:02 Approaching Loss of Earnings and Loss of Pension in Military Claims 12:00 The Importance of Rehabilitation in Military Claims 18:46 Understanding the Armed Forces Compensation Scheme (AFCS) 26:45 Unique Injuries in the Military…

19:33

In this podcast episode, Louis Browne KC and Sara Sutherland discuss a recent pre-inquest review hearing and the case it pertained to. They provide details about the deceased, her pre-morbid conditions, and the cause of death. They also discuss the issues that arose in the case and the learning that can be taken from it. The hosts talk about the approach to pre-inquest review hearings, including questions of evidence and how to prepare. They also touch on topics relevant to inquests, such as interested persons, disclosure, expert evidence, jurisdiction, and costs. The episode concludes with a call for feedback and questions from listeners. Takeaways Pre-inquest review hearings are an important step in the investigation process and require thorough preparation. Coroners' inquests are not adversarial proceedings and are focused on conducting a full and fearless investigation into the facts. Expert evidence can be obtained and presented in a coroner's inquest, but it should be relevant and within the correct discipline. Witnesses who are abroad can still give evidence via video links, and steps should be taken to ascertain their willingness to do so. Costs – recoverable in some circumstances but think carefully, where does funding come from?…
