In combining expertly annotated legislation with helpful commentary and references, Dominic Villa’s Annotated Civil Liability Act 2002 (NSW) has been an essential tool for lawyers since the Act commenced. 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). The Third Edition also considers a significant body of case law addressing the interaction between the Act and Commonwealth statutes. Comparative tables of provisions from interstate civil liability regimes are included and relevant interstate provisions are referenced at the beginning of each chapter. In an important and rapidly evolving area of law, Villa’s Annotated Civil Liability Act 2002 (NSW) has long been a source of considerable assistance to lawyers engaged in civil litigation. Practitioners will appreciate the updated expert guidance now provided by this Third Edition of the text.
