Slip and Fall Personal Injury Lawsuits: Negligent Acts, Management Fails, & Industry Solutions

How society's undervaluing of life puts all of us at risk-and the groundbreaking economic measure that can fix itLike it or not, sometimes we need to put a monetary value on people's lives. In the past, government agencies used the financial "cost of death" to monetize the mortality risks of regulatory policies, but this method vastly undervalu

Personal Injury law is one of the most ubiquitous areas of legal practice yet often forms no more than a tiny fraction of a student’s study of the law of Tort. This book is designed to provide the necessary background and information to take the reader from a standing start (whether law student, file handler, or litigant-in-person) to a level of understanding where they can run a claim with a real understanding of the underlying issues, the aims of such litigation and the issues which can arise. It provides a genuine touchstone for anybody involved in Personal Injury law, serving to remind them of what they are doing and why.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
David Boyle read Law at Churchill College, Cambridge and has 21 years’ experience of Personal Injury work based at Deans Court Chambers in Manchester. He has a thriving practice across a broad spectrum of complex, high value, high profile and unusual Multi-Track claims, lectures at both undergraduate and postgraduate level and has been Head of Mini-Pupillage at Deans Court for 6 years.
Always approachable, he has a particular appreciation of the need for clients to understand their litigation, no matter what the complexities, and has a reputation for clarity and forensic rigour in both his written and oral advocacy. In 2015, the Legal 500 said that he "Provides tactically astute, detailed advice and is able to convey this simply." He has carried that through to his writing, the critically acclaimed "On Experts" and this, his second book.
"He writes as he speaks: He surveys the territory with the advantage of a wealth of experience, richly leavened with a generous helping of personal anecdote, thereby combining authority with accessibility." – Turner J

An Introduction to Personal Injury Law

Cambridge Studies in Law and Society

The Cultural Politics of Harm and Redress

Injury and Injustice

The lack of a social scientific foundation across the field of negligence means that social life and scientific knowledge are transformed and mutated by a negligence paradigm that is unable to fulfil the social purposes typically attributed to it. Analysing the extent to which the reparation ideal has polluted and confused attempts to find radical alternatives to negligence, this book argues for a critical separation between the issue of harm minimisation and reparation; a separation that, it is argued, provides the basis for a different policy approach to the human experience of injury, error and misfortune.

Beyond the Negligence Paradigm offers a novel engagement with key problems and failings which have long been identified with the operation of the negligence system. Connecting a broad range of critical approaches in private legal theory that laments the disconnection between negligence and the 'real world', the author analyses the various obstacles – including the very nature of law and scientific knowledge – which make inevitable a difficult and incomplete intersection. Illustrating how a stronger appreciation of the nature of science helps to achieve a better appreciation of law, in particular underpinning the importance of exploring non-legal approaches, the author seeks to provide a fresh vantage point from which policy-makers and socio-legal scholars can identify new and more honest strategies for addressing and managing the incidence of error, accidents and injury. Recommending a de-centring of negligence-style thinking, the work argues in favour of a more open-ended inquiry about the mechanics of social life and our ignorance of it.

This leading textbook places medical decision-making in its legal context and provides practical guidance on the most ethically challenging cases that face the courts. It explains how the Mental Capacity Act works in practice and how the courts and lawyers wrestle with and resolve problems relating to the very essence of life: what is life? what is an acceptable quality of life? what treatment is so burdensome that it should not be attempted? These questions are posed, not in the abstract but, in real - often desperate, often urgent - situations.

This is the essential guide for solicitors, barristers and judges specialising in Court of Protection work, clinical negligence, personal injury and human rights. Postgraduate medical ethics students and academics, NHS bodies and local authority professionals, health professionals and administrators in the NHS and private practice and those in Commonwealth countries with an interest in these topics will also find this book an invaluable resource.
 
Medical Treatment: Decisions and the Law offers a readily accessible text for those dealing with the provision of medical treatment to those without capacity and related areas, providing a clear description of procedure as well as practical application of the law.
 
 Key developments for the Fourth Edition include:
· The impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on decision making in the Court of Protection, particularly in relation to end of life decisions and vaccination
· New chapters on two controversial issues: "the Right to Die?" and "Access to Healthcare: Choice"
· Expanded chapter on Decisions for Children, covering recent high-profile cases such as Re Gard where continued provision of life sustaining treatment for babies or very young infants was at issue, and addressing the difficult issues around decision making by 16 to 17 year olds
· Substantially updated chapter on Going to Court, covering how the incapacitous patient can be supported to participate in decisions about their treatment
Discussion of "Escalation of Care" covering matters including NICE guidelines and care pathways and expanded coverage of issues concerning the funding of treatment.
