Guidelines
for the Assessment of General Damages in Personal Injury Cases
The Judicial Studies Board, Lord Justice Waller
Paperback - 72 pages 5th Ed (14 July, 2000)
Blackstone Press; ISBN: 1841740314
This authoritative guide to assessing general damages in personal injury
claims is widely used by judges involved in such cases. The 5th edition takes
account of the recent decision of the Court of appeal in Heil v
Rankin (2000) 2 WLR 1173 which made principled increases in the
level of personal injury awards over £10,000. In arriving at the
guidelines given, the authors have also distilled the important
decisions of the courts since the publication of the last edition, and
amended the figures to take into account the inflationary rise of the
past two years. The Guidelines are designed to provide a clear and
logical framework for the assessment of damages while leaving the
discretion of the assessor unfettered, since every case must depend to a
degree on its own facts. They provide a guide to all those involved in
personal injury litigation: solicitors, barristers, insurance companies,
trade unions and the medical defence organizations.
