Credit Hire Trials - Claimant Insights to Protect Damages & Keep Cases on Track

Introduction

This virtual classroom seminar will explore the key issues that can arise at a Credit Hire Trial from the Claimant’s perspective, focusing on common challenges that can impact the recovery of damages. Drawing on the presenter’s experience, the session will consider how potential trial issues can be identified, addressed and where possible, avoided, with the aim of protecting and maximising the Claimant’s quantum.

This live session will take an interactive, issue-led approach, providing practical guidance on the main problems that can derail a case, key authorities that advocates and case preparers should have at their fingertips and practical insights to help mitigate or neutralise challenges at trial. There will also be an opportunity for participants to raise issues from their own experience for group discussion.
