Child Seriously Injured in Car Crash Awarded 2.9 Million Euro

by | Feb 15, 2010

Ben McHale, now four years old of Fethard Road, Clonmel, Co Tipperary, had a settlement of €2.9 million approved by Mr Justice John Quirke in the High Court for suffering blindness and brain injuries in a car accident.  The car was driven by the child’s mother, Disislave McHale, who was driving the car without insurance.  The case was taken against the Motor Insurers’ Bureau of Ireland since the car was not insured. As the plaintiff was underage, the case was taken by his uncle William McHale, acting as the “next friend” guardian.
