Download or read book Personal Injury and Damage Ascertainment under Civil Law written by Santo Davide Ferrara and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-10-06 with total page 709 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume serves to provide an international overview of personal injury compensation in different geographical areas (15 countries already included), with a special focus on the methods used to ascertain the injury and the related damages. It also goes on to clarify the logical and methodological steps required for a sequential, in-depth ascertainment of any traumatic event and the related personal damage, both pecuniary and non-pecuniary. Personal injury is a legal term for an injury to the body, mind or emotions suffered by the plaintiff under tort and/or civil law regulations. Damages related to the injury can be pecuniary or non-pecuniary in nature. Although several comparative studies and research projects on tort and civil law and personal injury claims aimed at developing new tools for promoting harmonization of private law have been performed at an international level, heterogeneity and divergences still exist in the definition and compensation of personal injury and damage across different national legislative systems. The starting point for any awarding procedure should be a medical, or rather a medico-legal, assessment to gain evidence on the trauma or event causing the injury, the mechanism of injury, the pre-existing health status of the injured party, and the health consequences of the injury (temporary and permanent impairment, work incapacity, etc.). In order to pursue the ultimate goal of an international harmonization of personal injury compensation, it is of upmost importance to define the quality requirements for the medico-legal ascertainment methodology, which are essential for guaranteeing the objectivity, rigor, and reproducibility of the data and the evidence collection procedure. Currently, there are no supra-national medico-legal guidelines dealing with the ascertainment methodology of personal injury and damage under tort and civil law.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Where one person wrongfully causes the death of another, an action may be brought for the benefit of certain relatives of the deceased. In a wrongful death action, damages may be claimed on behalf of those relatives for the loss of financial support and the loss of services that they may suffer as a result of the death. The terms of reference included a review of the practice of discounting a surviving spouse's damages for the possibility that the spouse's relationship with the deceased may have come to a premature end or for the prospect that the spouse may enter a new financially supportive relationship. The terms of reference also called for a consideration of these issues in relation to a claim by a dependent child of the deceased.
