Description

Designed as a practical legal text, Corporate Liability focuses on such areas as direct, vicarious, agency-based and limited liability. The variables affecting a company liability are explained as well as the circumstances in which limited liability may be removed. In addition attention is given to the scope and likely effect of personal liability. The work also examines civil and criminal liabilities, with examples of recent cases. Ongoing controversies affecting corporate manslaughter are included. The management of corporate liability is a constant theme throughout, stressing the strategic and other approaches which may be adopted to avoid or minimise such liability. * Acts as a practical guide to UK and EU law * The only book which deals exclusively with this rapidly growing area of interest
