If you’re injured in a car accident, follow these steps:
Step 1: Seek medical treatment immediately and get a doctor’s report.
Step 2: Report the accident to the Gardaí if required and gather evidence (photos, witness statements).
Step 3: Notify your insurance provider and the other driver’s insurer.
Step 4: If the accident was not your fault, you may be eligible for compensation. File a claim through the Personal Injuries Assessment Board (PIAB).
If the claim isn’t resolved, consult a solicitor for further action.
