Working with the Injuries Board

Before commencing Court proceedings in Ireland, all personal injury claims (with the exception of a personal injury arising out of medical negligence) must be submitted first to the Injuries Board (formerly known as the Personal Injuries Assessment Board or PIAB). The Injuries Board is an independent government body which assesses the amount of compensation due to a person who has suffered a personal injury.

The Injuries Board can deal only with matters where there is no dispute of liability, as they do not hear cases. In the event that the defendants agree, an assessment of damages can be carried out by the Injuries Board without the necessity of proceeding to Court.
