Wrongful Death Claims: A Practical Guide provides insightful analysis of the issues faced in this complex area, while focusing on the wrongful death and related legislation. Ancillary civil liability, workers’ compensation and motor accidents compensation legislation is also addressed.

This resource will be invaluable to all legal practitioners engaged in this field and equally for the judiciary when adjudicating upon fatality claims.

Commencing in the United Kingdom with the Fatal Accidents Act 1846 (UK), the development of this area of the law is traced through several jurisdictions in the British Isles and the British Commonwealth, including the Australian states and territories, all of which have substantially followed the UK model. With a focus on the significant influence of judicial decisions, in Australian and other jurisdictions, the work will be a valuable resource in those jurisdictions with comparable wrongful death legislation.
