Personal Injury*

MyCase Solicitors

MyCase Solicitors is a specialist personal injury* law firm – this is the only area of law we deal with, meaning we have extensive knowledge and experience which you would not receive from a more general practice solicitor. We are dedicated to helping those who have been injured as the result of an accident caused by somebody else’s negligence to receive the compensation they are entitled to. In Ireland, all personal injury* claims (excluding medical negligence claims) must be filed with the Injuries boards, which require specific forms to be filled out. This can be a confusing process, which is why we have developed our services around streamlining this process and minimising any stress for our clients.

Speak With A Solicitor

In order to start the process of seeking compensation for your personal injury*, you need to speak with a solicitor. When assisting our clients, we generally seek the following information to ensure a successful claims process:

  • Details of the accident that caused your injury

  • Details of the injury (including any evidence, e.g. photographs)

  • Details of any previous injuries/medical conditions/accidents/claims

  • Details of expenses you have incurred due to the injury (e.g. medical bills, lost pay)

  • If it is available, CCTV footage (your solicitor can acquire this for you

  • Details/Description of the person at fault
