KembaraXtra – Legal Terms – Ogden Tables
The Ogden tables are actuarial tables used by courts and lawyers to calculate *damages in personal injury and fatal accident claims.
Their purpose is to assist in estimating future financial losses such as loss of earnings, pension loss, and future care costs in a fair and realistic way.
The tables account for factors such as life expectancy, possible periods of unemployment, sickness, disability, and early death before retirement age.
Courts use the Ogden tables together with a *multiplier system to determine the present value of future financial losses.
These tables are widely regarded as an authoritative reference source in personal injury litigation and are regularly updated to reflect changing economic and demographic data.
