Written by leading commercial law barrister and academic, Adam Kramer KC, this work, now in its 4th edition, has established itself as a leading practitioner text on the topic of damages in contract law and commercial disputes and is regularly referred to and cited in and by courts.
Part II is structured according to the type of breach of obligation, such as service obligations (includes commercial services, and also employment) loss of use of money, providing detailed analysis facilitating the read across from cases outside the particular practice area (most commodities lawyers don't know landlord and tenant cases, most professional negligence lawyers don't know employment cases, etc). It can be used by those in a particular area (construction, sale of goods, financial disputes) whilst also providing cases and answers outside the specialist works on those areas.
Part III deals with factual causation and actual loss.
Principles of remoteness, mitigation and legal causation are dealt with in Part IV, with Chapter 18 on causation in practice uniquely structured in categorising cases on breaks in the chain of causation by the type of event (e.g. claimant speculation, post-breach dealings with defendants, receipt of benefits from third parties).
Particular types of loss requiring separate examination are dealt with in Part V whilst other matters such as third parties and loss; negotiating damages; non-compensatory damages, concurrent claims and exclusion clauses are discussed within Part VI.
Features
• Very detailed case law coverage and very practical in approach.
• Focuses on English and Welsh law but with substantial coverage of other Common Law decisions.
• Comprehensive, covering both practical concerns/dispute patterns and academic debate.
• To aid understanding and practicality, the book is arranged by the type of complaint (eg mis-provision of services, non-payment of money or the temporary loss of use of property etc).
• In addressing causation, it divides relevant cases and rules between the breach position (what actually happened and what will happen) and non-breach position (what would or might have happened but for the breach, including loss of chance).
• When considering remoteness, mitigation and legal causation, cases are analysed and categorised on breaks in the chain of causation by type of event (eg failing to avoid the danger; failure to terminate the contract etc).
• Cases from all contractual fields are considered, not only those usually referred to (construction, sale of goods, charter parties; professional services) but also those less frequently covered in general works (such as SPAs, banking contracts, breach of exclusive jurisdiction clauses, insurance and landlord and tenant).
• Tort decisions are referred to where relevant, including full coverage of professional negligence damages.
• Detailed explanation of many practically important but often neglected areas, such as damages for lost management time, whether hedging costs are recoverable, and the how to prove lost profits.

• Barrowfen Properties v Patel (2025, Court of Appeal, causation and loss of chance)

Lloyd and Freeman's Introduction to Jurisprudence is the leading textbook on jurisprudence in the English-speaking world.

Trusted by professionals for over 100 years, this acclaimed resource sets the standard in non-marine commercial insurance law. With expert commentary on the latest legal developments and a reputation for clarity and authority, it's an indispensable tool for staying ahead in a complex and evolving field.
It explains foundational aspects of UK insurance law-such as the principles of misrepresentation and utmost good faith-and provides an in-depth look at the concept of loss, including key issues like causation and notification requirements. The book also explores specific insurance sectors, with chapters covering third-party liability, the rights of third parties against insurers, coordination between multiple insurers, and the legal treatment of double insurance.
Since the last edition there have been the usual steady stream of reported cases and regulatory developments. Notable examples are cases arising as a consequence of the COVID-19 lockdown dealing with, among other things, important questions of construction and causation, decisions on insurable interest, the application of s.11 of the Insurance Act 2015, illegality, good faith and exclusion of the 2015 Act's provisions, the Third Parties (Rights against Insurers) Act 2010 and aggregation clauses in liability policies. We also consider the new "consumer duty" issued by the Financial Conduct Authority.
Specific discussion focuses on the following cases:

Professor Katy Barnett provides authoritative and practical guidance on the nature, extent, and limitations of damages individuals and companies can claim in the event of breach of contract.
Clearly setting out what the law is, this new title is written with practitioners in mind. It will also be of real value to students and academics as it considers some of the theoretical debates surrounding this topic.
The book is divided into three parts and each chapter within those parts offers a clear structure and summary of key issues courts and parties should consider:
I. Consequences of breach of contract
Considers how to measure and understand the concept of expectation loss; provides guidance on measuring reliance loss (or 'wasted expenditure'); outlines best approach to negotiating damages; discusses situations where non-pecuniary loss may be awarded; looks at accounts of profits; considers other kinds of awards (nominal, exemplary and actions for debt)
II. Attribution of Responsibility:
Considers causation and how it operates as a limit to the availability of damages; remoteness of damage and the rule in Hadley v Baxendale; and explains fully how mitigation operates via the avoidable and avoided loss rule
III. Limitation and Exclusion of Liability
Discusses how damages can be stipulated in a contract and how that ability can be impinged upon (rule against penalties and statutory prohibitions); considers clauses which exclude or limit liability.
In addition, a number of topics of interest to practitioners are addressed:
Breach of warranties (e.g., warranties of authority, quality and reasonable care in the context of share purchase agreements)
Guidance on pleading and proving loss, including an explanation of the fair wind principle
Damages for breaches of dispute resolution clauses such as arbitration and exclusive jurisdiction clauses and confidentiality agreements
The principle of transferred loss

For the ultimate guide to insurance contract law, look no further than Colinvaux's Law of Insurance. Divided into three parts, the first section delves into the key principles of insurance contracts, covering terms and conditions, loss and recovery limits, causation, subrogation, and claim notifications.
The subsequent sections focus on the various parties involved and the distinctive features of special types of insurance contracts in the UK, such as liability policies.

Colinvaux's Law of Insurance is updated annually to ensure you are always up to date. Key features include:

Recent editions have chronicled the legal consequences of various disasters, including mesothelioma claims following the establishment of tort liability in the Fairchild case in 2001, the Christchurch earthquakes in 2010-2011, and the COVID-19 pandemic beginning in March 2020. These matters have thrown up entirely new legal issues and have challenged what was thought to be orthodox learning on old ones. Key questions arising from them, and in particular the application of business interruption policies to COVID-19 losses, remain unresolved and feature heavily in the present edition. The Russian invasion of Ukraine on 24 February 2022 has highlighted a further range of questions which can be and has been answered only by resort to, and reinterpretation of, earlier authority.
The Consumer Insurance (Disclosure and Representations) Act 2012, the Third Parties (Rights against Insurers) Act 2010, and the Insurance Act 2015 have been in force for around a decade. After a slow start, cases are now beginning to come through on the proper interpretation of the legislation. This edition provides detailed commentary on these emerging decisions, highlighting how courts are now interpreting the legislation in practice.
