How to make a personal injury claim* in Ireland

You have a personal injury claim* in Ireland if you have been injured in an accident that was not wholly your fault. It may sound obvious, but if your injury was due to someone else’s actions, then there is a fair chance you have a compensation claim*. 

A personal injury can have many effects on you and the family. You may not be able to get back to work after an accident, or you may have to take a job at a lower wage. The personal injury claim* can seek compensation for the drop in income to the home.

If a workplace accident, like suffering a back injury when asked to lift boxes without the proper training, impacts on your caring for the kids, then it could be a personal injury claim*. 

Any injury can affect your life. The broken leg in a fall when out for a run can make it difficult to get to work, do the weekly shopping or bring the kids to football. If the fall was due to a poorly maintained footpath in the path, you could have a compensation claim*.

There are over 20,000 personal injury claims* made in Ireland each year. Over 4,700 are public liability claims, the slip, trip and fall claims generally, while more than 11,500 are the result of car accidents with a further 3,600 being workplace accident claims. 

PBN Litigation Solicitors can look at the details of your injury and see if you have a valid personal injury compensation claim*.

A personal injury claim* is when you seek compensation for any injury suffered in an accident that was not wholly your fault. The compensation can be for loss of earnings, the pain and suffering and all those extra costs such as medical treatments, getting a taxi for travel, and even an overnight stay at a hotel.

The personal injury claim* can be for cuts and bruises you got when you slipped on the wet supermarket floor, which was not cordoned off by management.

Your personal injury claim* could be for the trip over loose cables at a gig in the local pub when you tore ligaments in the ankle and were off work for a few weeks.

If you were knocked off your motorbike by a driver opening their door on you without looking in the rearview mirror, you could have a compensation claim* for the injuries suffered.

Your employer, the other road user, the property owner, and the local council have a duty of care to you. If they breach that duty of care, causing you an injury, you may have a personal injury claim*.

PBN Litigation Solicitors have the experience in all types of personal injury claims* to get you the compensation you deserve.

Yes, you do need a solicitor to make a personal injury claim*. Sure, you can try going it on your own, but you can be guaranteed the other side will have their solicitors in place, ready to use their experience against you.

Having an experienced personal injury solicitor by your side from day one may make all the difference to your compensation claim*. They will look at the details of your case, see where the injury has impacted your life and how much the other side is responsible for the extent of your injuries. 

The costs soon add up after a personal injury. The cost of medical treatment in Ireland is high, and you may also need to adapt your home and car and even require full-time care. You should not have to carry these costs if you were not wholly at fault for the accident, and a solicitor’s role is to figure out what these effects are worth financially.

At PBN Litigation Solicitors, we bring our experience and expertise to every personal injury case. We know how compensation works and how to be with you, from dealing with the Injuries Resolution Board to handling any possible court cases.

Le Commission de résolution des blessures en Irlande est la première étape de toute demande d'indemnisation pour préjudice corporel*. Auparavant connu sous le nom de The Personal Injury Assessment Board, le IRB, a été introduit par le gouvernement pour simplifier et normaliser les demandes d'indemnisation pour préjudice corporel* en Irlande. 

A personal injury solicitor can be your representative with the IRB. The solicitor should have the experience of working with the IRB and can advise you on every aspect, from filling out forms to knowing what your claim is worth.

All personal injury claims*, except medical negligence claims, must go through the IRB. The Board works with all sides to come to a resolution to a personal injury claim*.

Si la partie responsable refuse d'accepter votre demande d'indemnisation, ou si vous n'êtes pas satisfait de l'indemnisation proposée, l'IRB peut vous recommander de saisir la justice. 

Le cabinet d'avocats PBN Litigation peut prendre en charge votre dossier auprès de l'IRB et, si nécessaire, engager une action en justice pour faire valoir votre demande d'indemnisation pour préjudice corporel*.
