Civil liability and compensation for damage
A damages claim needs to explain what happened, the loss and the connection between them. A loss alone does not establish who should be liable or how the amount claimed will be supported.
At Bernal Aquino, we represent those seeking compensation and those facing damages claims. We assess the background and evidence to prepare a position appropriate to the matter.
Our approach to the matter
We reconstruct events and the parties’ involvement. We review contracts, correspondence and other records to identify points requiring evidence.
Documents for the initial review
- An account of events with dates and the people involved.
- Contracts, correspondence and documents related to the event.
- Records and reports explaining the alleged loss.
- The claim and notices if proceedings have already begun.
The initial review defines the claim, available evidence and work required. Outcomes depend on the circumstances of the matter and what the evidence can establish.
