A quick definition of consequential injury:

Consequential injury is when something bad happens as a result of another bad thing happening. For example, if a car accident causes you to miss work and lose money, that's a consequential injury. It's like a chain reaction of bad things. This is different from direct injury, which is when something bad happens right away because of an event, like getting hurt in the car accident itself. Consequential injury can be hard to predict and can cause a lot of problems, but it's important to understand when dealing with insurance or legal issues.

A more thorough explanation:

Consequential injury refers to a type of loss that arises from the results of damage rather than from the damage itself. It is also known as consequential loss. This type of loss is different from direct loss, which results immediately and proximately from an event.

For example, if a person's car is damaged in an accident, the direct loss would be the cost of repairing the car. However, if the person is unable to use the car for work and loses income as a result, that would be a consequential loss.

Another example of consequential loss is when a business suffers a loss of profits due to a fire that damages its premises. The direct loss would be the cost of repairing the damage, while the consequential loss would be the lost profits.

It is important to note that consequential losses can be either proximate or remote. Proximate losses are the natural and probable effect of the wrongful conduct, while remote losses are not.
