Road traffic accident claims

Castleisland sits on busy routes with heavy goods, farm and tourist traffic. If you were injured in a road traffic accident that was not your fault, you may be entitled to be compensated for your injuries, car damage, lost earnings and other costs.

After an accident

  • See a doctor and keep a record of your treatment.
  • Report the accident to the Gardaí.
  • Take photos and get the details of the other driver and any witnesses.
  • Contact a solicitor before giving a detailed statement to an insurer.

Proving liability

We obtain the Garda report and, where necessary, engage an engineer or motor assessor to establish how the accident happened.

Uninsured or untraced drivers

If the other driver was uninsured or drove off, a claim may be made through the Motor Insurers' Bureau of Ireland.

In contentious business, a solicitor may not calculate fees or other charges as a percentage or proportion of any award or settlement.
