Personal Injury Claims in Ireland
If you have been injured through no fault of your own, you may be entitled to compensation under Irish law. Personal injury claims in Ireland are governed by the Personal Injuries Assessment Board (PIAB) process and, where necessary, proceedings in the Irish courts.
Monahan Solicitors act for clients across Drogheda, Dundalk, and Co. Louth who have suffered injuries in road traffic collisions, workplace accidents, slips and falls, and other public liability incidents. We explain your rights clearly and manage every stage of your claim.
Whether your case settles through PIAB or proceeds to the Circuit Court or High Court, our team gathers evidence, liaises with insurers, and fights for fair compensation for your pain, suffering, and financial losses.
Road Traffic & Workplace Accidents
Road traffic collisions remain among the most common personal injury claims in Ireland. From minor whiplash injuries to serious trauma, we handle claims against the Motor Insurers' Bureau of Ireland (MIBI) and negligent drivers.
Workplace accidents on construction sites, farms, warehouses, and offices can leave you unable to earn a living. We advise on claims against employers and third parties under Irish health and safety legislation.
Our solicitors understand the impact an injury has on you and your family. We pursue compensation for medical expenses, loss of earnings, and future care needs while keeping you informed at every step.
The PIAB Process & Court Proceedings
Most personal injury claims in Ireland must first be assessed by PIAB before court proceedings can be issued. We prepare your application, respond to PIAB assessments, and advise whether to accept an award or reject it and litigate.
Where settlement is not achievable, we represent you in the District Court, Circuit Court, or High Court as appropriate. Our experience with Irish personal injury law ensures your case is presented effectively.

Frequently asked questions about personal injury in Ireland
How long do I have to claim for a personal injury in Ireland?
In most cases, you have two years from the date of the accident (or from when you knew you were injured) to bring a personal injury claim in Ireland. There are exceptions for minors and certain circumstances, so seek legal advice promptly to protect your rights.
Do I need a solicitor for a PIAB claim in Ireland?
You can apply to PIAB without a solicitor, but having experienced legal representation helps ensure your application is complete, your injuries are properly documented, and you do not accept an undervalued assessment. Monahan Solicitors handle PIAB applications and appeals on your behalf.
What compensation can I claim for a road traffic accident?
You may claim for general damages (pain and suffering), special damages (medical costs, loss of earnings, travel expenses), and future losses where applicable. The Book of Quantum provides guidance on injury valuations, but each case depends on its own facts.
Will I have to go to court for my personal injury claim?
Many personal injury claims in Ireland settle through PIAB or direct negotiation with insurers without a court hearing. If court proceedings are necessary, we prepare your case thoroughly and represent you at every stage, keeping you informed throughout.
