Fundamentals of Running Down and Personal Injury Litigation, a new addition to the Malaysian Litigation Series, is an instructional and practical book on the law relating to personal injury and fatal accident claims in Malaysia. It includes information on the evidential parts of running down cases under the Evidence Act 1957, as well as the advocacy and litigation aspects of these types of claims, covering the pre-trial and trial stages.

The pre-trial sections contain helpful hints on how to prepare pleadings and bundles of papers, while the trial section covers the litigation and advocacy components of personal injury law. This article is quite practical in nature, and it covers issues such as litigating a running down case in court, the do's and don'ts of presenting a case, and the leading of evidence and cross-examination of witnesses to prove one's case to the satisfaction of the trial court. In summary, readers will learn how to lay a solid basis for their client's case by improving the trial strategy both before and throughout the trial.

This book adequately covers the evaluation of damages for injuries/losses experienced, which is an important aspect of personal injury practise. There are commentaries on previous case law and the most recent developments in the law, as well as updates on the most recent revisions to the Civil Law Act 1956. The increased interest in concerns involving out-of-court settlements is handled in this book, making it a fairly comprehensive title.
