Personal Injury Guidelines

What are the Personal Injury Guidelines?

The Personal Injuries Guidelines set guideline levels for personal injury compensation awards in Ireland. They are published by the Judicial Council. The Personal Injuries Guidelines can be downloaded here (or see below). These replaced the old Book of Quantum which was withdrawn in April 2021.

You can also use the injury claim calculator for Ireland which is available on our website and provides you with an estimated compensation payout for your circumstances.

These personal injury guidelines are used by Personal Injuries Assessment Board (PIAB) and the Courts to enable them to ensure consistency in the personal injury awards of monetary damages in successful personal injury claims.

These personal injury guidelines outline information on all types of personal injury claims. All claims to PIAB must be supported by appropriate medical evidence. This may include all reports and records from the time of the injury and all examinations since the accident occurred. These guidelines are a general guide as to how much money may be awarded for a personal injury claim. It gives a guide in respect of various injury types, depending on the severity of the injuries and the time period to recovery. They do not fully determine the amount of a personal injury awards which may be payable in Ireland.

Who are the Personal Injuries Assessment Board (PIAB)?

In Ireland, the Injuries Board, also referred to as the Personal Injuries Assessment Board (PIAB) was set up in 2004 under the Personal Injuries Assessment Board (PIAB) Act 2003 by the Irish Government to evaluate and assess personal injury claims. Its aim was to reduce the amount of time it takes for a personal injury case to be resolved and save time and money. According to PIAB, since its introduction, it has managed to significantly reduce the amount of time it takes for a personal injury claim to be settled. It has been reduced from approximately three years to 7-9 months, in many cases. To do this, the Injuries Board established a group of assessors whose function is to make fair and transparent injury assessments under the PIAB Act 2003.

Case Settlement

Compensation claims take into account certain aspects of a personal injury along with any after-effects the injury has/will have on a person’s quality of life and ability to earn money. Personal injury awards in Ireland are decided with the following aspects in mind:

Pain/suffering and loss of quality of life/enjoyment of life
Loss of earnings as a result of the injury
Medical bills as a result of the injury
Loss of future income caused by the injury
Cost of future medical care

How does the severity of an injury affect the amount of compensation awarded?

The Judicial Council’s personal injury guidelines and the figures you will see below will vary depending on the severity of a person’s injury and will generally categorise injuries into the following ranges:

1. Minor

The person usually fully/substantially recovers from an injury.

2. Moderate

Moderate injuries where a person has substantially recovered from an injury but ongoing symptoms persist following recovery which interferes with a person’s quality of life and/or interferes with them carrying out their day to day activities. Generally, the person will reach full recovery from these types of injuries.

3. Moderately Severe

The injury has resulted in long-term/permanent incapacity or physical limitations that impact the part of the body that was injured.

4. Severe and Permanent Conditions

The injury has caused major disruption to the person’s quality of life, ability to carry out their daily tasks and other areas of their life resulting in long-term serious pain and/or continuous medical attention.

What if I have multiple injuries?

If a person has suffered more than one injury in an accident, please note that adding the different values together will not give you an accurate estimate of compensation. Generally, when the Injuries Board is assessing your injury, they will look to the most severe injury first and then adjust that value to incorporate any other less serious injuries to arrive at a final amount of compensation that will be made as a personal injury award.

How to use this compensation estimator

The compensation estimates contained in the claims tables below below are intended to provide you with general estimates of compensation amounts based on the Judicial Council’s personal injury guidelines. This is not intended to provide you with specific estimates on how much compensation may be awarded for a personal injury. If you move forward with a personal injury case, the Injuries Board will assess your case and provide you with a compensation figure based on the severity of your injury, length of recovery and the outcome of your recovery.
