Welcome to Louise Howard Solicitors

PERSONAL INJURY*

We have considerable experience in all areas relating to personal injury* and represent both plaintiffs and defendants nationwide. We advise on the most appropriate action to take when our clients have suffered a personal injury* as a result of the negligence of another party. We offer personal attention, use simple language and provide practical and clear advice at every stage of the process.

* You should note that no solicitor/client relationship or duty of care or liability of any nature shall exist or be deemed to exist between Louise Howard Solicitors and you until you have received a written letter of engagement from us in which we confirm our appointment as your Solicitors.* In contentious business a solicitor may not calculate fees or other charges as a percentage or proportion of any award or settlement.

Road traffic accidents are the most common cause of personal injury*. Should you have been unfortunate enough to have suffered personal injury* in a road traffic accident that was not your fault, we can advise you as to whether you have grounds to bring a claim. We will gather as much information about your case before advising you whether you have a good case or not. If you decide to go ahead with your case we will deal with all aspects of it for you. We will guide you through the process, giving you support at every stage. We will organise the paperwork, obtain the reports and lodge your application to the Injuries board to ensure the best result and proper compensation for you. We offer personal attention, use simple language and provide practical and clear advice at every stage of the process.

Accidents can happen at any time, on the road, involving cars or motorcycles, and many also occur in the workplace. Other common types of accidents can be simple things such as:

Slips and falls on wet floors
Uneven or broken pavements and footpaths
Wet or slippery supermarket or shop floors, due to spillage or cleaning, where no warning or ‘cleaning in progress’ sign is displayed
Tripping on obstacles on the floor, such as cables from electrical units, or boxes left on a floor
Trip and fall on stairs due to bad lighting or due to the absence of hand rails for balance.
Injured on somebody else’s private property due to hazardous conditions.

What we recommend that you do if you suffer an injury are the following:

As soon as possible after the accident report it to the Gardai/the property owner/management and/or your doctor.
Take a picture of the place where the accident happened
Take a note of the specific details of the accident such as time and date.
Take a note of the names of those to whom the accident was reported and if possible get written confirmation from them that the accident has been duly noted.
Take a note of the names and addresses of any witnesses.
Maintain a record of your costs and keep receipts.

We understand the impact an injury can have upon the victim and their family, often causing great physical and emotional pain together with financial distress. We provide a friendly proactive approach to resolving your case as quickly and cost effectively as possible. However, if it is necessary to bring your case to Court we have the expertise through many years of experience to represent you in this forum and achieve the best possible result.

It is important to be aware that the Statute of Limitations allows you a period of two years from the date of the accident to bring a claim for personal injury*. This is extended for minors and those under a disability. If a child has been involved in an accident the two year time limit does not begin to run until the child reaches the age of 18 years. A parent or legal guardian can bring a personal injury* claim on behalf of a child up until the child reaches 18 years. Once the child reaches their 18th birthday they will have two years to bring their claim if one has not already been taken. It is essential that you speak to a solicitor without delay about your case to ensure that you do not run out of time.

Not very helpful - Some detail in this companies advertising needs updating it seems. Their website boosts a free consultation with one of their solicitors, this was not afforded to me, a solicitor didn't even speak to me!! They claim to call you back within one hour, this didn't happen. I had to call back the next day again to try and speak to someone!! And the strangest was they advertise that they deal with medical negligence nationwide but I was told by reception that they wouldn't take a case in the county that they are based in - is it that hard to bid someone afew minutes of your day🥱

Michael Gregg 5 months ago

We recently had the pleasure of working with Louise for two significant legal matters: the purchase of our house in Galway and updating our wills. Having moved from England, we were initially concerned about navigating the Irish legal system, but Louise's professionalism and expertise made the process seamless and stress-free.

When buying our house last year, Louise provided exceptional guidance and support. Her attention to detail and thorough understanding of property law ensured that everything went smoothly. She was always available to answer our questions and kept us informed at every step, making the entire experience much more manageable.

More recently, we turned to Louise for assistance in updating our wills. Once again, she demonstrated her commitment to providing outstanding service. Louise took the time to understand our needs and offered insightful advice, ensuring our wishes were clearly documented and legally sound.

We couldn't be happier with the service Louise provided. Her professionalism, expertise, and dedication to her clients are truly commendable. We highly recommend Louise to anyone in need of a solicitor. She has our utmost trust and gratitude for her excellent work.

A very professional and caring solicitor. I was very fortunate to have had the opportunity to avail of her services and found Louise to be very worthy of her recent nomination as a finalist representing Connacht at the Irish Law Awards. She was always diligent, honest, fair and transparent. More importantly I found Louise to be very proactive and extremely prompt in her replies to my queries and courteous at all times. If you are fortunate enough to get Louise to act on your behalf then rest assured you are in the hands of someone that will fight your cause to the very end.
