Personal injury claims are a common occurrence in Ireland. While they may seem like an abstract concept, they can actually be very real and painful for victims. Personal injury compensation is available to those who have been injured by another person or entity.

What is a personal injury claim?

A personal injury claim is a civil action for damages for injury, illness or death caused by the negligence of another person. There are two types of personal injury claims: tort and contract.

Tort claims arise from breaches of duty by those who owe us a duty to look after us, including doctors and nurses; public bodies like government departments; employers who run factories or businesses; landlords who own property (such as shops) where they let rooms to tenants on short term leases; insurance companies offering protection against risk through policies purchased either through direct purchase from an insurer or third party providers such as Aviva Insurance Ireland Limited from your home country). Tortious behaviour includes negligence in providing goods and services – this could include anything from selling faulty products or failing to repair faulty appliances; failure of contractors/builders not doing their job properly when building homes etc…

Who is covered by personal injury compensation?

In Sligo, Ireland, any adult or child who has been injured due to the fault of another person is covered by personal injury compensation. The injured party may be a senior citizen or an adult with disabilities. The definition of “injury” covers everything from minor scratches to serious spinal cord injuries and burns.

The injured party does not have to be the person who was directly hurt; this means that if you fall down stairs while taking someone else’s shoes off at home, you can still make a claim for compensation because it wasn’t your fault that they slipped on your carpet!

How to make a personal injury claim

When you are considering making a personal injury claim, the first step is to speak with an experienced solicitor. The law firm will be able to guide you through the process and help ensure that it goes as smoothly as possible.

When making a claim, it’s important to gather evidence which proves your case in order to get compensation for any injuries or damage caused by someone else’s negligence. This may involve:

• Gathering medical records from doctors who treated you after the incident occurred;
• Taking photographs of your injuries;
• Recording video footage of what happened (if possible);
• Making notes about how long it took before seeking medical treatment;

Making a personal injury claim against the government or employer

If you are injured while on duty, you can make a claim against the government. This includes police officers and other members of the public security service.

If you are injured while on duty in a public place or space, then your claim may also be eligible for compensation from both the state (in Ireland) and private companies who own that piece of land or building where it happened.

If you are injured due to the fault of another person, you may be entitled to compensation.

If you are injured due to the fault of another person, you may be entitled to compensation. This includes injuries caused by someone else’s negligence or breach of duty, such as if a driver hits your car and causes damage. You can also make a claim for compensation if you have been injured due to the fault of an employer or government agency. For example, if your employer fails to provide adequate safety measures at work and causes an accident which results in injury then this could constitute medical negligence on their part and entitle them to pay out damages for your injuries if they are deemed responsible at law (i.e., liable).
