Settlement Secured in Complex Medical Negligence Case


Posted in News on Wednesday, August 19th, 2026

Aisling Maher, assisted by Mags O’Shea and Maggie Keane are pleased to have secured a significant settlement for our client in a complex medical negligence case involving permanent blindness in one eye, impaired vision in her remaining eye, and significant psychological and day-to-day consequences.

This was a difficult case involving disputed liability and medical causation. A wide-ranging team of experts—including specialists in ophthalmology, respiratory medicine, psychiatry, occupational therapy, care, and vocational rehabilitation, were briefed to help us build strong evidence on  breach of duty, causation, future treatment, care needs, ability to work and overall impact on our client’s life.

We hope the compensation will provide our client with the care, support and resources she needs to lead as full and independent a life as possible.
