The ‘Witness Statements in Complex Care, Loss of Earnings and Accommodation Claims’ seminar focuses on claimants who have complex health care needs, often requiring lifelong care and support, and explores the nature of serious and multiple injury cases.
Witness statements are the single most important document in serious injury cases. They require a carefully crafted statement that clearly sets out the claimant’s losses and tells a compelling story that will gain the courts’ attention. Learn about the procedural requirements, the information that must be included, and discover best practice for structuring witness statements.
The seminar will teach Personal Injury Lawyers how to methodically work through each head of loss in serious injury cases, and detail the documents needed in support of general damages.
Haroon will highlight a wide variety of care needs he has come across including brain and spinal injuries, amputation, and pain disorders. Case types covered will include catastrophic injury claims, physical disabilities, cognitive impairment, and other high-value claims.
The ‘Witness Statements in Complex Care, Loss of Earnings and Accommodation Claims’ seminar will teach you what can be claimed in loss of earnings cases and about all the documents that are needed in order to support general damages.
You will also learn about early information gathering, initial needs assessments, rehabilitation and treatment, the types of care that may be needed including non-commercial and commercial care, and best practice for building evidence to prove care claims.
