Former District Judge Stephen Gold has valuable advice for lawyers working on general damages claims in personal injury cases, in this week’s ‘Civil way’ column in NLJ

Ensure your calculations are correct and take into account inflation and the about-to-be-released latest Judicial College guidelines, by reading Gold.

‘Civil way’ also covers a clutch of family law matters, including reassurance for lawyers who wear spectacles, an employment tribunal form update and ‘some delicious decisions for assured shorthold landlords’.

Gold sets out some key points from a landlord and tenant dispute appealed from a case heard by Judge Jan Luba KC, ‘who retired at the beginning of last month and whose first instance judgments survive virtually unscathed’.
