Lawbook Co., AUSTRALIA ebook Annotated Civil Liability Act 2002 (NSW)

Now in its Third Edition, Villa’s text continues to assist lawyers to avoid cases that are of limited application, instead directing their attention to significant principles and issues in practice. Villa’s Third Edition considers a number of amendments to the Act and important judicial decisions which have continued to accumulate rapidly in NSW and around Australia since the publication of the previous edition. This new Third Edition includes commentary on recent High Court decisions regarding causation, limitations on the recovery of damages in Compensation to Relatives claims, damages for mental harm and the application of proportionate liability provisions (and cognate provisions in Commonwealth statutes).
