Dianne Willmore, who passed from mesothelioma in 2009, won a landmark £240,000 case, holding Knowsley Borough Council liable for her asbestos exposure during school. Her case prompted legal and financial ramifications for local authorities nationwide, leading to increased awareness and changes in asbestos-related negligence proceedings.
Shane Flynn, 35, owner of a Mullingar clinic, was convicted of sexual assault after inappropriately touching a client seeking back pain relief. The investigation also revealed 18 hours of footage showing Flynn secretly filming 35 women during massages, raising further concerns about his conduct and abuse of trust within his practice.
Naveed Rana, a Dublin taxi driver, was sentenced to five and a half years for the assault of an 18-year-old woman after a night out. The court heard how Rana took advantage of the victim’s trust, driving erratically and assaulting her before being apprehended due to her quick actions in reporting the incident to Gardaí.

If you or your family have experienced sub-standard medical care and suffered negative consequences, our experienced medical negligence solicitor team can help you pursue a compensation claim.
The Irish Cancer Society reports that over 3000 women and around 25 men are diagnosed with breast cancer each year. Three out of four women diagnosed with breast cancer are over the age of 50. It can also occur in young women and men, but it is not as common.
The HSE reports that detecting breast cancer in the early stage would be easier to treat and offers a better chance of recovery, hence regular screening as necessary is advised. If you have been diagnosed with breast cancer at a late stage and believe that you could have been informed earlier, it can be very distressing for you and your family.
Coleman Legal LLP understands how devastating it can be when knowing or unknowing cancer patients do not receive a proper and timely breast cancer diagnosis. We are available to offer independent legal advice and assist you with options available to you in this difficult time.
If you have experienced sub-standard medical care, received a late diagnosis or misdiagnosis of cancer, and suffered negative consequences as a result, our compassionate and highly experienced Breast Cancer Misdiagnosis claim solicitor team can help you pursue a claim for compensation.
It is advisable for you to speak to an experienced team of Breast Cancer Misdiagnosis Claim Solicitors as soon as possible if you believe that you were not provided with an adequate or appropriate level of medical care, which resulted in you sustaining an injury or illness.
After the consultation with your medical negligence solicitor, he/she will request access to your medical records and engage an independent medical expert to assess your records. The purpose of engaging an independent expert is to establish whether there was any negligence on the part of the medical professional.
Where the independent medical expert is of the professional opinion that medical negligence did occur, upon your instructions, your solicitor will commence the process of issuing legal proceedings in Court against the medical professional and/or hospital.
The legal time limit to make a breast cancer misdiagnosis claim is two years from the date of injury or date of knowledge that the injury or illness resulted from medical negligence. For children/minors, the time limit expires two years after their 18th birthday. You may contact a solicitor to discuss your case to advise of the Statute of Limitations applicable to your case.
Any injury suffered during a medical procedure, whether it is physical or psychological, may have long-term effects on the victim and their families. Our medical negligence solicitors have assisted many clients in recovering maximum damages, and we believe in putting the needs of our clients first.
