Olive Fahey October 2018

Olive Fahey

Case Study: October 2018

Olive Fahey, a 55-year-old woman, secured a significant six-figure settlement in October 2012 for a breast cancer misdiagnosis case. Represented by Cian O’Carroll Solicitors, Ms. Fahey was assured she was cancer-free on multiple occasions from 2005 to 2007, only to be diagnosed with Grade 3 invasive cancer later.

The settlement was reached with the Health Service Executive (HSE) and Barringtons’ Hospital, who admitted failings in her care. The HSE also issued a formal apology, acknowledging the severe impact of the delayed diagnosis on Ms. Fahey’s health and life.

Cian O’Carroll’s firm was instrumental in achieving this outcome, reflecting their dedication to securing justice for clients affected by medical negligence. For more details, read the articles below:
