This book provides practical guidance on accidents, illness, disability and industrial disease, and the available forms of financial support. It considers the immediate financial needs of those who have suffered an accident, disease, illness, disability pending a claim for compensation and damages for personal injury and where any compensation should come from, i.e. employers, pension, private insurance, or from a trade union. This is a complex area and understanding how it works is essential for everyone involved in PI litigation or advising PI victims. This book provides information on the new and sweeping changes to many disability benefits; unravels the complexities of calculations of, deductions from, and implications of any awards that are made and gives comprehensive coverage of all key areas of the financial side of personal injury cases from liability issues to deductions from awards.
