Foot injuries can profoundly impact an individual’s life, affecting their mobility, well-being, and overall quality of life. When pursuing a foot injury claim in Ireland, it’s crucial to consider the various factors that influence the compensation awarded. These factors encompass the nature and severity of the injury, the individual’s age, the extent of medical treatment required, and the long-term consequences for their health, mobility, and psychological well-being. This summary provides an overview of the considerations and compensation brackets for foot injury claims based on the personal injury guidelines in Ireland. Whether the injury is most severe, resulting in permanent pain, or a minor nature with potential for recovery, understanding these guidelines is essential. It’s important to recognise that each case is unique, and legal advice is indispensable in effectively navigating the claims process’s intricacies.

Injuries resulting in substantial mobility restriction or significant permanent pain, including conditions less severe than the most severe injuries. Compensation range: €80,000-€130,000
Injuries resulting in continuing pain, including severe burns, scarring, and injuries with the risk of arthritis and prolonged treatment. Compensation range: €38,000-€75,000
Injuries like displaced metatarsal fractures lead to permanent deformity, continuing symptoms, and potential risks of osteoarthritis and surgery. Compensation range: €20,000-€45,000
Relatively modest injuries, such as simple metatarsal fractures, ruptured ligaments, and puncture wounds.
Compensation range
