Two sisters, age 6 and 7, injured in rear-ending collision awarded €17,000 each

Settlements of €17,000 each for two sisters injured in a rear-ending traffic accident have been approved by Judge James O’Donohoe in the Circuit Civil Court.

Barrister Grainne Berkery, counsel for Isobel and Emily Holligan, who suffered soft tissue injuries in the collision, told the court that the girls were passengers in their mother, Jennifer Holligan’s car, when it was shunted forward by another vehicle that struck it in the rear.
