Litigation

At O'Connor O'Shea, we provide professional and discreet advice and legal services in relation to personal injury claims* arising from road traffic accidents, work place accidents, accidents in public places or medical negligence.

Since August 2004 most personal injury claims must, by law, be submitted to The Injuries Board.

There are strictly enforced time limits for bringing a personal injuries claim.  In Ireland that time limit is two years.

We handle claims from the initial application to The Injuries Board through to the courts.  

In all cases, compensation is awarded under two main headings:

(A) General Damages - compensation for the injuries you have received.

(B) Special Damages - Financial loss as a result of the accident, such as medical costs and any loss of earnings.


*In contentious matters, a Solicitor may not calculate fees or other charges as a percentage or portion of any award or settlement.
