Testimonials From Our Clients
McMahon Goldrick Solicitors, Dublin are endorsed by Spinal Injuries Ireland to act on behalf of its members and also represents the Organisation itself.
I worked with Ralph for 22 years and it was a pleasure to do so. He has acted for Spinal Injuries Ireland and its members since 1993. He has acted as an advisor to the Board, been a member of the Fundraising Committee and also the Transitional Housing Programme Committee. Integrity and professionalism are assured and it is these qualities combined with his experience and indeed that of his Partner Jessica Goldrick that gave me total comfort when referring members to him. They go about their work with a total empathy for the member and of course this is also of crucial importance. I cannot recommend Ralph and Jessica highly enough.
Ralph, the first thing on my ‘to do’ list was to email you to say a big thank you to you and to Jessica for all the support you gave to me over the past year.
I received a stellar service from your firm and most particularly Jessica who was a delight to deal with. While the outcome was beyond my expectations, so too was the service I received from your firm. I will be in touch with Jessica separately to thank her

Understanding Serious Injury Claims
In Ireland, numerous individuals are subjected to serious injuries annually, whether in workplaces, educational settings, or public spaces, leading to substantial medical care, rehabilitation, and possible significant time away from work. Serious injuries can be transformative, often preventing individuals from resuming their previous lifestyle, careers, or recreational activities.
Both private and public entities are obligated by law to maintain the safety of their employees and the public. They must actively identify risks and either remove or mitigate them to the greatest extent possible. This can entail a range of strategies, such as installing warning signs, updating work processes and equipment, supplying protective gear, instituting safety training, and enforcing health and safety policies.
Each industry is bound by its specific health and safety regulations. Failure to adhere to these can constitute negligence, giving victims the right to seek legal recourse to recover damages. However, the burden of proof lies with the claimant to show that negligence occurred.
Types of Eligible Serious Injury Claims
There is no limit to the type of serious injury that may warrant a claim. Clients often approach us with injuries such as:
- Bone fractures
- Head and brain injuries
- Musculoskeletal damage
- Eye injuries
- Industrial diseases
- Amputations
- Burns
- Spinal injuries
- Psychological injuries, including PTSD
Serious injuries can have enduring impacts, resulting in chronic pain, loss of function, sensory loss, reduced mobility, cognitive issues, anxiety, and permanent disfigurement. We dedicate ourselves to advocating for those severely injured due to another’s fault, striving to restore their lives to their pre-accident condition as closely as possible.
How Serious Injury Solicitors Determine Liability
Serious injuries can result from negligence in various environments, including but not limited to:
- Workplaces
- Educational facilities
- Public areas
- Roads (traffic accidents)
- Healthcare settings
- Military bases
- Retail outlets
- Construction sites
Identifying who is responsible for the injury-causing accident is crucial. Depending on the case, liable parties could be local authorities, public bodies, contractors, employers, companies, or individuals.
How to Make a Serious Injury Claim
To make a serious injury claim, you must prove:
- A duty of care was owed by the party,
- That duty of care was breached,
- The breach resulted in a serious injury.
Challenges arise when there’s insufficient evidence of negligence. Part of our role is to determine the validity of a claim and, if viable, build a persuasive case showing the other party’s legal fault leading to your injury.
If you’re uncertain about the claim viability regarding your serious injury, our Serious Injury Solicitors are available to attentively review your case and guide you through your legal choices.
What Does a Serious Injury Claim Cover?
Compensation for serious injuries due to negligence typically encompasses:
- Pain and suffering experienced,
- Specific financial losses related to the injury. This includes incurred costs like transport, accommodation, medical care, and projected future expenses such as ongoing therapy and care costs.
The compensation amount is tailored to the precise nature of the injuries and the case particulars.
