Professional Liability in Australia Fourth Edition provides a comprehensive and definitive analysis of the law of professional liability, bringing together the law for a range of different professions.

Following a discussion of general principles, each chapter explores the issues as they relate to doctors, solicitors, barristers, accountants and auditors, building professionals, valuers and financial services professionals.

The issues essential to each profession are discussed, such as:

- duties owed to clients and third parties (in statute and in general law); - standard of care and skill required; - principles of liability; - liability for breach of duty; - defences available; and - damages and other remedies. Professional Liability in Australia Fourth Edition is an essential resource when prosecuting or defending professional liability claims.
