Compensation for Pain and Suffering Caused by Grief

On October 26, 2018, lawyer Ivo Greiter gave a lecture  at the Frankfurt Chamber of Industry and Commerce titled “Compensation under Austrian Law for Pain and Suffering Caused by Grief.

He also presented his last book (“Compensation for Pain and Suffering Caused by Grief”). It contains over 100 decisions  about the amount of compensation for pain and suffering that is due to a person who has lost their spouse, child, sister, brother, partner, etc. in an accident. His book “Compensation for Pain and Suffering after an Accident” was published 12 years ago.

At the time, the review of the “Zeitschrift für Verkehrsrecht”, a magazine on transport law, said the following: “In clear, simple language and a clarity previously unattained in Austrian literature, the highest court precedents for compensation for pain and suffering are presented “.  Now, using the same system, court judgments on compensation for pain and suffering caused by grief are set out.
