If you slipped, tripped, or fell while working in Galway, you may be entitled to compensation even if the accident seemed minor at first. Kearney Law can guide you through the claims process with no upfront costs.
A workplace fall claim is a legal process where employees can seek compensation for injuries caused by unsafe working conditions. Employers in Galway have a duty of care to provide a safe environment.
If hazards, such as wet floors, damaged flooring, poor housekeeping, or inadequate safety measures, caused your fall, you may be owed compensation for lost wages, medical treatment, and long-term recovery costs.
Even if you didn’t report the injury right away, we can still help. Contact us for advice today.

Contact us through our enquiry form, phone, or email. We’ll review your situation, answer your questions, and explain what to expect next. There’s no upfront fee to begin your claim.
Your case will be carefully reviewed by our legal team. We assess the strength of your claim, advise on the documentation needed, and guide you through key steps such as attending an independent medical examination and preparing the information required for the Injuries Resolution Board (IRB).
Once you decide to move forward, we take care of everything. This includes gathering evidence, contacting the other party or their insurer, submitting your claim to the IRB, managing settlement discussions, and handling any court proceedings if needed.
