The APIL Guide to Fatal Accidents provides practical advice on how to run a case involving a fatal accident and how to secure maximum awards for the family, dependents and estate of the deceased. The guidance spans from initial considerations including the client interview and funding, valuing the claim and the applicable procedure through to future developments in the law relating to fatal accidents.
In particular, drafting schedules of damages and witness statements is given special attention, and the Law Commission's Report on Fatal Accidents and the effects of the Human Rights Act 1998 are considered in full.
The APIL Guide to Fatal Accidents also includes coverage of the Coroners' Court and the Criminal Injuries Compensation Authority which are frequently important elements of fatal accident cases.
Useful practical materials such as precedents and a client questionnaire complement the text. In addition, the Law Reform (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 1934, the Fatal Accidents Act 1976, relevant CPR extracts and the Government Actuarial Tables for use in Personal Injury and Fatal Accident Cases (the Ogden Tables) are reproduced for ease of reference.
