Cross Border Personal Injury Claims - What’s New?

Introduction

This webinar is aimed at those dealing with cross border personal injury claims. It will be of interest to those representing English victims of accidents abroad, including RTA, occupier liability and employer liability claims where EU based defendants and insurers are pursued, as well as those representing EU member state residents injured in England and Wales. The topics will also be of relevance to those representing insurers and other defendants and those who represent non-UK clients.

This webinar will provide an update on recent case law, consider procedural and regulatory developments and discuss the scope of litigation and interlocutory arguments as we continue to transition to pursuing cross border personal injury cases without the EU regulatory framework that existed previously.

There will be a focus on case law developments since Brexit and practical learning that can be applied to cross border PI cases being brought in England and Wales.
