This workshop covers the various aspects of personal injury law. It discusses negligence actions involving specific “special cases,” such as vicarious liability, premises liability, negligence per se, and negligent infliction of emotional distress.
In addition to negligence this workshop will also cover strict liability, absolute liability, and product liability. Participants will discover the relation between absolute liability as it relates to animal owners and abnormally dangerous activities. The workshop will also cover topics related to mass torts and class actions. The discussion of strict liability as applied to defective products and bad faith is also addressed.
