Personal Injuries
Brendan Burke Solicitors advise on all types of personal injury claims – accidents or injuries occurring at work, in road traffic accidents, or from medical negligence.
If you slip and fall at work, or you sustain injuries in a car crash, or you are the victim of medical misadventure or negligence, you are entitled to compensation for the injuries you suffer, as well as for loss of earnings, any damage to your property, and any other loss you may have suffered as a result.
There have been marked changes in the way personal injury claims are handled. Since 2004, all claims must first be pursued through the Personal Injuries Assessment Board – or InjuriesBoard.ie as it is now known.
If you are not happy with their decision, you still have the right to ask a Judge to decide your case. However, you must go through InjuriesBoard.ie first.
The High Court has ruled that the PIAB must deal with personal injury solicitors acting for applicants. At Brendan Burke Solicitors, we’ll take you through the compensation process and keep you informed every step of the way.
Your Solicitor should make you aware that, even in contentious cases, he or she may not calculate fees or other charges as a percentage or proportion of any award or settlement.
