As the winter sports season begins many people travel to the slopes to enjoy a skiing holiday. The vast majority of people ski safely and do not have any adverse experiences. However, some people are involved in an accident on the slopes which results in injury. A report by the BBC however, asserts that as many as 10,000 UK nationals are injured each year in skiing accidents. Skiers should always wear a helmet and also good-quality gloves to limit the risk of injury.

Giambrone & Partners personal injury lawyers advise a number of clients each year who have been injured abroad whilst skiing and are experts in successfully bringing claims for compensation where a third party is responsible for the accident and injuries.

LNG Charterparty Hire Formula: Meaning Of JKM–TTF Pricing Spread

The Commercial Court ruled on a USD 29 million dispute over an LNG carrier charterparty's index-linked pricing formula, determining whether the "JKM-TTF spread" operated bidirectionally or only when JKM exceeded TTF. The decision examines how unprecedented market conditions—where European gas prices surged above Asian prices due to the Ukraine war—tested the contractual formula's application and whether rectification could remedy an alleged drafting oversight.

One-Punch Manslaughter – When A Single Blow Kills (Video)

A split-second decision can change lives forever. In one-punch manslaughter cases, a single impulsive blow, perhaps thrown in anger, fear or misguided bravado, leads to a tragic death. These ‘death by a single punch’ incidents are more common in the UK than many realise. Dozens of families every year are left devastated, with one family grieving an unimaginable loss, and another family shocked and fearful as their loved one faces a homicide investigation for an outcome no one intended. It’s a tragic reality, one moment of anger, one fatal assault involving a single blow, and two lives (and families) ruined.
