Judges dealing with personal injury compensation claims in the civil courts have two main duties which involve answering the questin of who is to blame for an accident and if appropriate how much compensation should to be awarded. The judge has can use his discretion when deciding who is at fault and apportion liability - either one side entirely or perhaps a mixture of both sides.

It's a tough job being a Judge deciding how much to award in personal injury compensation claims. In reality no monetary award can ever compensate properly for injury. If your car is damaged it's a lot easier to know how much it costs to replace than to estimate and assess the value of a physical injury. The real solution to the problem of measuring damages lies in considering previous cases in which similar injuries occurred and how much was awarded in that case. These cases can act as vital guidelines for a Judge.

In attempting to deal with the problem of measuring compensation, the `Judicial Studies Board' publish a book called `Guidelines to the Assessment of General Damages in Personal Injuries Cases' which is often used as a starting point for anyone wanting to assess the likely damages relating to a specific injury.

The publication called 'Kemp & Kemp: The Quantum of Damages' is used for consideration of previously decided cases and is available in most public libraries.
