Lawyers will be celebrating the latest edition of one of the profession’s most-thumbed textbooks at a launch next month.

Bingham’s Personal Injury and Motor Claims Cases is a key piece of literature for all those with a PI practice. The launch of the 16th edition will take place at Lincoln’s Inn on 1 February—quite a milestone for a book initially released in 1946. Its success is due to its combination of practical guidance and up-to-date comprehensive coverage of legal developments.

The latest edition has been written by a dedicated team of 28 contributors from Temple Garden Chambers. It spans 42 chapters, covering all aspects of liability, quantum, procedure, costs, and insurance related to motor claims. It includes a wealth of practical procedural advice, legal background, and summaries of reported cases, extending beyond the realm of motor claims where relevant.

General editor Anthony Johnson said: ‘This edition represents the culmination of countless hours of dedicated work from our team of experts, and we are confident that it will serve as an invaluable resource for practitioners in the field.’

To join practitioners and legal commentators for the launch of this valuable book at Lincoln’s Inn on 1 February, RSVP to events@tgchambers.com.
