Article by Mark Tiernan Solicitor on the effect of the O'Brien case on the Personal Injuries Assessment Board (PIAB).
As a result of the Supreme Court decision in the O'Brien case all personal Injury claimants have the right to be legally represented before the PIAB.
The O'Brien case involved a claimant (Mr. O'Brien) who made it clear in writing that he wanted his solicitor to handle his personal injuries action. The PIAB notwithstanding the authorisation continued to contact Mr. O’Brien directly.

Article by Mark Tiernan Solicitor on a recent decision relating to Specific Performance in Property transactions.
The first case I will deal with is the December 2008 case of Kelly v Simpson. Mr. Simpson signed a contract to purchase a property for €1.5m. While Mr. Simpson did not pay a deposit he did sign the contract. The high price reflected the planning potential of the property/site but it became apparent that the supposed potential was not going to be realised culminating in Mr. Simpson refusing to complete the purchase. Mr. Kelly then sued Mr. Simpson for specific performance of the contract.
