It’s the duty of an employer to maintain a safe working environment which will minimize the risk of an accident. However, if you’ve been in a workplace accident that wasn’t your fault, you’re entitled to compensation for the injury.

O’Reilly Doherty & Co. are solicitors that specialise in handling personal injury claims. We provide guidance and representation when you’re presenting your claim to the Personal Injury Assessment Board (PIAB).

If you have a query in relation to taking a personal injury* claim then we would be happy to discuss it with you. There is no charge for a consultation to discuss any potential claim.

What are you entitled to?

  • Injury Benefit: If you’ve sustained injuries during the accident and have incurred medical costs, you can be compensated for them. This includes medical costs not covered by healthcare.

  • Loss of Earnings: If you’re forced to take leave from work as a result of your accident, you’re entitled to compensation in your claim.

  • Disability Benefit: A benefit can be paid to you if you’ve become permanently disabled as a result of your accident.

Documents you need to file a claim

  • Medical Report: After the accident, you will need a complete medical examination. This includes details about the injury as well as any lasting effects it has.

  • Employment details: You’ll also need to have the contract you’ve signed with your employer on hand if requested by the PIAB.

  • Medical expenses: Whether you’re admitted to the hospital or not, make sure you have copies of all your medical bills. This also includes details of surgeries, medication or anaesthesia, if used.

How will we help you?

  • Document collection: While document filing for PIAB isn’t a lengthy process, it can be distressing when you’ve sustained injuries. We can collect and fill out all the required documentation.

  • Claim filing: We can also submit the claim on your or your family’s behalf while you’re undergoing the medical process. We can present the case to the PIAB and contact you regularly with updates.

  • Advice: Once your claim has been assessed by the board, we can give you an honest answer on whether or not the claim is fair. Our solicitors are not allowed to promise an amount or estimate but can give you a detailed reason on why or why not the compensation is reasonable.

  • Representation: If you choose to reject the offer made and continue the case in court, we will represent you in the court and to the other party to the best of our ability.

Why should you choose us?

  • Experienced: Our solicitors have a total of 26 years of experience in Personal Injury Claims in Ireland.

  • Clear communication: Our solicitors are always available for contact and ensure we give all information in easy-to-understand language.
