BILL
to
The Civil Liability Act 2018 changes the rules for personal injury claims (like car accident or slipandfall cases) in UK courts. It makes it tougher to win compensation by increasing the threshold of injury needed to claim, and it reduces the amounts people can receive, particularly for whiplash injuries.
