Tort Law in Two Hours

This video races though an entire Australian undergraduate torts law course in the space of just two hours. This particular video covers the intentional torts: assault, battery, false imprisonment, conversion, detinue, trespass to land, defamation, economic torts, vicarious liability, and multiple tortfeasors. Timestamps for each section are given below.

Seriously - in two hours! Well, actually 1:45 but what can I say, I''m efficient :-)

Obviously to smash through all of this in two hours, the video is relatively short on detail. but if you're looking for an overview, a backgrounder, or a great review session, hopefully this will really help.

I'd love to receive your feedback!

As ever, this is provided in the cause of education, not legal advice. If you have a real life torts issue, the best advice I can give you is to go see a lawyer. Otherwise, enjoy!

If my videos are helpful to you, you could always buy me a coffee!

I don't think I lost focus once within that two hours. You're a wonderful lecturer. Thanks for posting this!

[connaleslie]

You're an absolute legend for making these, I just started law school during a pandemic and you're a lifesaver 👏🏻👏🏻 Feeling WAY more confident tackling torts after watching this

[patrickoneill]

Anthony, you're a bloody legend. I imagine that you spend at least weeks piecing together the content for these vids, so it's massively appreciated. Cheers.

I found you after a horrendous contract law lecturer and you are so good at this. I’m taking torts next block and immediately checked to see if you had one for torts. I finished your video and then went and did my readings and it was so clear.

If you are struggling with sometimes overly wordy and unwieldy textbooks and lectures I strongly suggest listening to his lectures first and then doing your readings and coming back to the videos to solidify your understanding.

Hello from Indonesia. Thank you very much for making these type of videos, what you do is extremely meaningful, especially for someone like me who originally study law in civil law country, and are interested in the practice of common law. Keep up the good work, good sir. This channel is underrated, i hope more people come and support this channel.

I am just about weeping that I found you. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. My slightly decrepit 60 year old brain can understand you, and you have given me the basics I needed ready to study for my next trimester. I am so grateful.

[moniquefraser]

Anthony these videos are fantastic!! Cannot thank you enough - first-year uni student and I was super anxious about torts but this video is beyond fantastic. 5 years ago and still brilliant!

[miekapeterson]

Thank you for making this! I have my first Torts A exam next week and I was really fearing it before this video! Great revision and we can add in our own necessary cases/details that our lectures are looking for. Thank you so much, So far I’ve watched your Criminal, Torts and contracts and they’re all amazing

[targobundy]

Thank you again so much. Tort law for first year student is daunting and overwhelming. So much to read and sooo much to understand that my mind can't possibly take it on and understand it. But you have made so simply and easy to understand. I would rather watch the your videos and and analyse your videos then of my own lectures. ( I have watch my lectures two or more times and still didn't get it) but i get yours. Than you again.

I got a 7 in my torts course (High distinction) last year and work in the area for an insurance company. I am watching this lecturer to provide me with some information on how to deliver a fairly succinct, short style presentation to my team on torts law and negligence and there are some really useful tools here! In fact, some of the torts that I am not frequently exposed to on a regular basis are included in this video and it is really entertaining.

I should probably save this for later though... Gotta get back to studying Environmental Law and Equity/trusts!

[andyhawken]

I don't need medication for my ADHD. I just need to listen to this guy.

[majlindalulo]

Can I just say you are amazing for posting these. Thank you so much.

[songswithoutinstrumentalmu]

I should have come across your presentation before 2020. I had to read many tort law books, contact law books, IP law books, banking regulations when I was working on civil suits relating to those areas from 2016- 2020, self represented. Your video presentation are excellent but one must master the text books, reference books, case law, and perform legal research to fully understand the topics.... I have to agree your videos are excellent source of learning in addition to book materials that ate available. I am neither a lawyer nor a law student.

[briangork]

This guy's great, I mean I'm not nor have I ever been in Australia so I wish it was UK law but it was really easy to understand.


10/10 for the textile backgrounds.

[nataliehanna]

Really helpful! is it at all possible for you to do a video on negligent torts ?

[anugeorge]

Can I simply thank you for this and the contacts videos. Good work Anthony. God bless

[litozcar]

Every time I start a subject, I come to see your videos... thank you very much 😃

[sandraaboagye]
