What does restitutio in integrum aim to achieve for a claimant?

Restitutio in integrum is a legal remedy aimed at restoring a claimant to their original position before a loss or injury occurred. This concept is rooted in the principle that the claimant should be placed back in the situation they were in prior to the event that caused the harm. This does not merely involve financial compensation but rather ensuring that the claimant’s pre-incident condition is fully reinstated.

Choosing to restore the claimant to their original position addresses the underlying goal of achieving justice and fairness in the legal system, as it seeks to make the claimant "whole" again, rather than just providing monetary damages or support for future needs.

The other options may include elements that do not align with the correct interpretation of restitutio in integrum, such as suggesting compensation without the full restoration of the original position, or providing ongoing support, which strays from the goal of reversing the effects of the incident entirely.
