Apil Guide to Fatal Accidents

Fatal accidents present the lawyer with a set of problems distinct from those of non-fatal personal injury claims. In particular, who does the law categorize as a dependent and how is the claim for dependency calculated? This UK guide, now in its second edition, provides practical advice on how to run a case involving a fatal accident and how to secure maximum awards for the family, friends, and the estate of the deceased. The second edition includes new chapters dealing with multipliers and damages in anticipation of death. APIL Guide to Fatal Accidents also offers advice on dealing with the UK coroners' court.
