Proven Personal Injury & Accidents Solicitors

A sudden accident can affect far more than your physical health.

It can disrupt your ability to work, create financial uncertainty, and place significant pressure on your family.

Our experienced personal injury solicitors pursue the compensation you are legally entitled to while helping protect your employment rights and financial future.

The Hidden Financial Trauma of a Sudden Accident

For many individuals and families, the aftermath of an accident can be overwhelming.

Common concerns include:

• How will I manage my finances while recovering?
• What happens if I cannot return to work immediately?
• Will making a claim affect my relationship with my employer?
• How can I ensure I receive fair compensation?

Insurance companies often seek to resolve claims quickly, sometimes before the full impact of an injury becomes clear.

We provide practical legal guidance, allowing you to focus on your recovery while we manage the legal process.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will making a personal injury claim against my employer affect my job?

Irish employment law provides protections for employees who pursue legitimate personal injury claims.

Employers cannot lawfully penalise employees simply for exercising their legal rights.

We can advise you on both your injury claim and your employment protections.

Should I accept a settlement offer directly from an insurance company?

It is generally advisable to seek legal advice before accepting any settlement offer.

An early offer may not fully account for future medical expenses, rehabilitation costs, or long-term financial losses.

How long does the Personal Injuries Resolution Board (formerly PIAB) process take?

Timeframes vary depending on the circumstances of the claim.

Many cases are assessed within several months, though more complex matters may require additional time or court proceedings.

How long do I have to make a personal injury claim in Ireland?

In most cases, personal injury claims must be initiated within two years of:

• The date of the accident, or
• The date you became aware of the injury

Seeking legal advice as early as possible helps preserve important evidence and protects your legal position.
