Katy Barnett and Sirko Harder discuss remedies at common law, in equity and under statute. The remedies are primarily organised according to their function: first, compensation for loss, then coercive, vindicatory, restitutionary and gain-based remedies and finally, proprietary remedies. Private Law Remedies examines the general principles in remedies law and highlights the commonalities and differences among the various private law wrongs. While the focus is on English law, some developments in other common law countries are also mentioned.
Students and scholars of private and commercial law will greatly benefit from this clear and accessible book. It is also a vital resource for overseas lawyers who are seeking to understand private law remedies in English law, as well as policymakers, judges and commercial litigators.
