This book examines contractual limitation, principles and practice through the use of knock-for-knock indemnity clauses. In using such clauses, the parties agree that for certain forms of potential liability - typically property damage, personal injury to employees, and sometimes other heads of claim such as consequential loss - any loss arising will be absorbed by the party who suffers it: "you look after your losses, I'll look after mine." It is an apparently simple, pragmatic and neat solution to the question of who bears liability: a risk allocation model so straightforward that it was described by one experienced English judge, Honorable Mr. Justice Morison, as "crude".
