On the non-contentious side we assist clients with all aspects of the employment relationship from recruitment and selection to drafting and reviewing employment contracts, HR policies and procedures and health and safety issues. We offer a full range of services to employers and employees on a wide range of employment law issues and we have the necessary expertise to represent clients before the Rights Commissioner, Employment Appeals Tribunal, Labour Court, Equality Tribunal and the Civil Courts.
We do not promise a “quick fix”, or “flashy gimmicks”, or promise more than we can deliver but we do promise you, as our logo states “thoughtful clear advice”. We recognise that a medical accident has significant emotional and financial consequences for you and your family, and we will do everything we can to make the process run as smoothly as possible for you.
We strongly believe that every victim of medical negligence is entitled to just as good, if not better, legal representation than that provided to the State, hospital boards and medical consultants.
We believe proper access to justice is a fundamental right and not a privilege.
We hope in all cases to obtain an explanation for what happened to you.
We strive to hold the doctor or hospital accountable for their actions.
Our aim is to secure proper compensation wherever appropriate.

Our team of medical negligence claim solicitors will do all they can to ensure that any mistakes made in your care and treatment are acknowledged, and that you receive the appropriate compensation.
