Trip & Slip

'Injury' may be either physical or mental and in certain circumstances, a personal injury claim can be on behalf of the victim of a fatal accident.

This guide is designed for claimants who fit into three categories: those without any legal training who want to bring or defend their own claim; those who need advice on whether or not to use a lawyer (and if so how to pay for one!) and finally, those who simply want to know what to expect before they go to court.

Barrister Felicity Mileham gives you the know-how to analyse your own case and that of the ‘other side’. She explains how the personal injury process works, from scenarios out of which claims might arise, to a detailed explanation of court paperwork and procedures.

The book sets out what losses you may claim for, how to collect evidence and what sums of money the court awards. It also provides guidance on what defences are available should someone make a claim against you.

Valid in England and Wales only.
