Notable Case: McGuigan Solicitors Secure €1.5 Million Interim Payment for Cerebral Palsy Case

At McGuigan Solicitors, we are committed to seeking justice for those impacted by medical negligence.

We recently represented a 12-year-old boy with cerebral palsy, resulting in a €1.5 million interim payment. This case involved alleged lapses in post-birth care at Mullingar Regional Hospital, with our client transferred to Dublin following concerns about his condition. Despite the HSE’s denial of claims, the settlement was achieved through mediation. The case will return to court after 5½ years to review future needs. We are grateful to our legal team, including Senior Counsel John O’Mahony and Solicitor Richard Crowley, for their dedication to James’s case.
