“I cannot recommend Deirdre Rafferty highly enough for the way she handled my road traffic accident claim from beginning to end.
I was involved in a serious road traffic accident where another driver, who was intoxicated, collided head-on with my vehicle while I was stationary. The other driver subsequently left the scene. Needless to say, the accident was a very difficult and stressful experience, and dealing with the aftermath while also trying to get on with my normal life was not easy.
From the very beginning, Deirdre gave me a great deal of reassurance. She explained the process clearly, kept me informed about what was happening with my claim, and was always willing to answer my questions whenever I was unsure about something. I never felt like I was being left in the dark about my own case. What I particularly appreciated was that she did not simply rush the claim to a conclusion. She took the time to make sure my injuries and the wider effects of the accident were properly considered. This included my physical injury and the psychological difficulties I experienced following the collision. I attended physiotherapy and counselling following the accident, and she made sure that the relevant aspects of my recovery were properly accounted for as the claim progressed.
There were times when the process felt lengthy and frustrating, but Deirdre remained patient and professional throughout. She explained the different stages of the claim to me and made sure I understood what was happening before moving forward. Her communication gave me confidence that my case was being handled properly.
Ultimately, after what was a lengthy process of almost a year, my claim was successfully resolved. I was very happy with the outcome, particularly because I felt that my solicitor had genuinely fought to make sure the full circumstances of my case were taken into consideration.
More importantly, throughout the entire process I felt that I had someone in my corner who genuinely cared about getting the best possible outcome for me. She was professional when she needed to be, but also approachable and understanding when I was dealing with what was a difficult period in my life.
I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Deirdre to anyone who has been involved in a road traffic accident or needs help with legal issues, and is unsure about what to do next. Having someone knowledgeable, responsive and trustworthy like her handling the legal side of things took a huge amount of pressure off me and allowed me to focus on recovering and getting my life back on track.
Thank you again Deirdre for all your hard work, patience and support throughout my case. I genuinely appreciate everything you did for me."

“I cannot thank Karen enough. She looked after my divorce for me. Straight away you can tell she comes from a farming background. I was going through a very difficult time and I was afraid I would lose the farm or part of it, which had been in my family for generations. She is efficient, tough and very dedicated. No stone was left unturned. She always kept me up to date on my case and returned phone calls the same day. I would recommend Karen to any person, who is facing divorce proceedings, not just farmers.”
JC
“I always read Karen’s weekly column in the Irish Examiner. She was always stressing the importance of making a Will, especially if a person is farming. I am a bachelor and was always putting it on the long finger. Finally I made an appointment to see Karen and the following day I signed the Will. There really is no good reason not to make a Will. I don’t know why I put it off for so long. It is a huge weight of my mind now, knowing my farm will pass to who I want it to”.
