A Barrister's Guide to Your Personal Injury Claim

Julian Benson

Summary

Every day, people get injured, often by accidents where no one is to blame. However, sometimes injuries happen because someone else - a person or an organisation - is at fault. These personal injuries can lead to compensation, particularly if the injury is life changing.
Usually, people only experience one significant injury that leads to a personal injury claim in their lifetime. So, for most, dealing with a claim is unfamiliar and stressful, especially when they're already coping with the injury. This guide aims to explain the legal process and help injured individuals (and their loved ones) understand what to expect.
Aimed at members of the public in England and Wales, this guide contains authoritative, impartial advice to enable individuals to understand and participate in their personal injury claim with confidence. The guide aims to:
- Help you understand the legal process, what to expect, and your role.
- Assist you in building a clear and reasonable claim, maximising the prospect that you will receive a reasonable compensation settlement.
- Guide you in choosing the right representatives, assessing their service, identifying and addressing problems early, and replacing advisors if needed.
It is written by a highly regarded specialist barrister with 30 years experience and is aimed at making the claims process less stressful whilst promoting fairer, quicker and more cost-effective settlements.

The Flying Boy 1 & 2

John Lee

The Flying Boy is a record of one man’s journey to find his “true masculinity” and his way out of co-dependent and addictive relationships. It’s for all men and women who grew up in dysfunctional families and are now ready for some fresh insights into their past and their pain.
 
This audio is also about grieving, a very misunderstood process often confused with self-pity. The Flying Boy opens doors to understanding — men will understand themselves and each other, and women will more deeply understand men, learn how to be with wounded men and still take care of themselves.
 
This book combines John's experience, strength and hope with awareness gained from years of working with men's groups and Adult Children. It offers a unique and fresh insight into co-dependency, fears of intimacy, abandonment and commitment and how to overcome them.
 
John Lee has taught Religious Studies at Austin Community College and Literature, Humanities and American Studies at The University of Texas and the University of Alabama. With a private counseling practice specializing in masculine psychology and men’s issues, co-dependency and adult children of alcoholics, he also is the director of the Austin Men’s Center.

Gastroenterology - Digestive...

Ava Westwood

Gastroenterology is the branch of medicine that focuses on the study, diagnosis, and treatment of disorders related to the digestive system. The digestive system, which consists of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract and associated organs such as the liver, pancreas, and gallbladder, plays a crucial role in processing food, absorbing nutrients, and eliminating waste. The complexity of the digestive system makes it susceptible to a wide range of conditions, from common issues like acid reflux to more complex diseases such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and liver cirrhosis. Understanding gastroenterology is vital for maintaining digestive health and effectively managing these disorders.
The field of gastroenterology has a broad scope, as it encompasses diseases and conditions affecting various parts of the digestive tract, including the mouth, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine, liver, pancreas, and gallbladder. Gastroenterologists are medical professionals trained to address these conditions, using a combination of diagnostic tools, clinical expertise, and advanced treatment techniques. In recent years, advances in endoscopic procedures, genetic research, and medical therapies have greatly improved our ability to diagnose and treat digestive disorders, allowing for better patient outcomes.
Digestive disorders can vary from mild and transient to chronic and debilitating. Some of the most common gastrointestinal issues include gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), peptic ulcers, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), and gallbladder diseases. These conditions often present with symptoms such as abdominal pain, bloating, diarrhea, constipation, and heartburn. In more severe cases, conditions like Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis, and liver diseases such as hepatitis or cirrhosis can have long-term health consequences and require specialized care.

The Shocking Truth about...

Zoey Fraisers

Relationships and happiness are two of the most talked-about and sought-after aspects of human existence. From fairy tales to modern social media trends, we are inundated with messages about what they should look like and how they should feel. Yet, despite this overwhelming focus, countless people find themselves dissatisfied, confused, or even heartbroken in their pursuit of meaningful connections and lasting joy. Why is it that something so fundamental to our lives feels so elusive?
The truth is, much of what we believe about relationships and happiness is rooted in myths, misconceptions, and societal expectations that don’t align with reality. We’re told that finding "the one" will complete us or that a perfect relationship will make all our troubles disappear. We chase milestones, like getting married or achieving career success, believing they will finally bring us happiness. But what happens when the dream doesn’t match reality? What if the problem isn’t with us, but with the stories we’ve been told?
This book was born out of a desire to unravel these myths and uncover the shocking truths about relationships and happiness. It’s not about pointing fingers or assigning blame but about understanding why we often fall short of the fulfillment we seek. It’s about looking at relationships—whether romantic, platonic, or familial—not as the sole key to happiness but as one piece of a much larger puzzle. It’s about redefining happiness itself, shifting away from fleeting moments of pleasure toward a deeper, more sustainable sense of contentment.
