Description

PAG 07, AWAAB’S LAW & DAMP / MOULD LITIGATION, is a technical public awareness guide for solicitors, insurers, and other legal professionals handling damp and mould claims. Drawing on the guide’s focus on legal challenge, it outlines the building science, environmental health, and evidential issues that frequently complicate these cases. Topics include liability, duty, causation, standards, hidden hazards, conflicting expert opinion, occupant vulnerability, and the retrospective reconstruction of conditions. The publication is designed to help legal teams frame the right technical questions and better understand why these disputes often involve uncertainty, incomplete evidence, and multifactorial explanations. This legacy edition provides a more informed starting point for analysing damp and mould litigation linked to Awaab’s Law.
