Personal injury or accidents can happen to anyone at any time in any place. Accidents can happen when you are at work, on the road, while on holiday or in public places. The statistics for 2016 have not been published yet but in 2015 there were 11,734 claims with a value of €268.45m.  Of these 8,815 were motor related claims.  If you are unfortunate enough to have an accident or experience personal injury, it may often be the case that you are not at fault, with any other party being liable or negligent. When the fault lies with someone else you are most likely entitled to make a personal injury claim to receive compensation.
