In this presentation, our Abuse & Neglect specialists will provide an update on the current landscape of abuse and neglect claims, with a focus on three key areas: limitation, liability, and quantum.
The session will explore recent and ongoing developments in limitation following the government’s consultation and draft legislation on the abolition of limitation in child sexual abuse claims, examine recent developments and trends relating to vicarious liability and negligent safeguarding, and discuss the impact of the 17th Edition of the Judicial College Guidelines and recent judgments on quantum.
This on-demand session aims to equip delegates with an understanding of how these developments affect insurers, local authorities, and organisations managing such claims.
