| Synopsis: |
Cases involving psychiatric damage are increasingly brought before the Superior Courts, both in Ireland and in other common law jurisdictions. Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, Mental Injury and the Law, 2nd edition provides a clear and concise practitioner s guide through all aspects of a claim in damages for post-traumatic stress disorder. It analyses relevant case law from the Irish and other common law jurisdictions. All aspects of practice and procedure are clearly set out and analysed with the aid of case law, and the practitioner is led through the increasingly complex legislation applicable to a psychiatric injury case.The law in this area has evolved considerably since the publication of the first edition in 2000. The second edition explores the emerging areas of Fear of Disease and the concept of physical evidence of a purely psychiatric disorder. It is an one-stop shop for the practitioner. It:*Brings you right up to date with all the latest case law and legislation including both reported and unreported Irish cases. Includes: Fletcher v The Commissioners of Public Works, 2003; Devlin v The National Maternity Hospital, 2007; Allen v Independent Newspapers (Ireland) Ltd. 2002.*Helps you understand the impact the Civil Liability and Courts Acts 2004 has on pleadings, and practice and procedure in relation to PTSD and mental injury.*Examines the implications of the Health and Safety at Work Act 2005 for employers in relation to stress and bullying in the workplace.Gillian Kelly is a practising barrister in the area of Personal Injuries, and specialises in Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. |
