Its pages discuss the merits and demerits of different forms of action as mechanisms for imposing liability for abuse, how compensable psychiatric damage can be proved and how the law deals with complex issues of duty of care, causation and extending limitation periods in the context of abuse cases. Whilst a substantial portion of the book deals with civil claims by the abused for the psychological harm caused by the abuse, coverage also extends to litigation by other parties involved directly or indirectly in abuse allegations. Also included is a significant comparative element, drawing upon jurisdictions such as Canada, Australia and New Zealand, as a means of speculating how our own legal system might develop.Compensating Child Abuse in England & WalesChild abuseLaw and legislationEnglandReparation (Criminal justice)EnglandSet-off and counterclaimEnglandChild abuseLaw and legislationWalesReparation (Criminal justice)WalesSet-off and counterclaimWalesChild abuseLaw and legislationReparation (Criminal justice)Set-off and counterclaimChild abuseLaw and legislationReparation (Criminal justice)Set-off and counterclaim344.4203276Case Paula1844561UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910968086103321Compensating child abuse in England and Wales4427336UNINA
