Cantillons Solicitors has criticised comments by Ireland CEO McGrath that half the half claims the insurer challenged in the country’s courts in 2018 were “potentially fraudulent”. Partner Jody Cantillon described McGrath ’s statement in the Irish Independent as “scaremongering” and an attempt to cast anyone with a personal injury case as untruthful. Cantillons Solicitors said McGrath ’s logic was misguided and essentially undermined his own point, as he was acknowledging 1,500 the claims were real. Cantillon also noted that few cases actually end up in court, as most are settled with compensation paid to the injured party.
