Whiplash Injuries Claims

Whiplash and other injury claims

Background

Personal Injury and car accident injuries

If you have been injured, hurt, or harmed in a car accident that was not your fault then you may be entitled to claim compensation from the party that caused the accident.

Medical Negligence

Everyone in the Medical profession in Ireland has what is known as a “Duty of Care” to the people that they treat, or they look after. If you are harmed or hurt when a third party fails to treat or look after you according to a “Duty of Care” then you may be entitled to claim compensation for Medical Negligence from the same third party.

What we do

If you have suffered Personal Injury like whiplash or medical Negligence, then you may need the help of a Personal Injury Solicitor to help you make a personal injury claim for compensation.

This where we come in as there are two distant systems for making the claims for compensation.

For personal Injury claims they must all be sent to the Injuries Board (formerly the PIAB) for assessment and you do not need a Personal Injury Solicitor Dublin to do so. But there are major reasons why it is advisable to have us on board.

  1. Any mistake in the filling in of the assessment forms may invalidate your claim
  2. The recommendation of the Injuries Board is just that a recommendation and is neither binding on you or the third party, so you will need us to either negotiate a settlement or take it further to court. If we were not there from the start, then evidence may not be available as the Injuries Board process can take many months

The Medical Negligence way is to obtain a medical opinion from a qualified third party and to then start proceedings against the party that did not adhere to the “Duty of Care”.

Whether it is Personal Injury such as whiplash or Medical Negligence Personal Injury solicitors is here for you.
