Large crowds expected for Letterkenny and Inishowen MICA legal meetings

written by Staff Writer June 30, 2022
FacebookTweetLinkedInPrint

Large crowds are again expected at meetings in Letterkenny and Inishowen this weekend for public meetings for homeowners seeking legal advice on their rights in the MICA scandal.

Leading legal firm Coleman Legal has already signed up to 700 homeowners interested in joining a multi-party court action.

The firm, led by solicitor Dave Coleman, have already held a number of meetings in Inishowen to explain the case and what it involves.

The case is being underwritten by two Donegal businessmen, Shaun Hegarty and Adrian Sheridan.

Because of the huge interest in the case, Coleman are returning to Donegal tomorrow for public meetings in both Letterkenny and again in Inishowen.

Dave Coleman told Donegal Daily “We feel the need to return because of the huge demand for us to answer questions for homeowners in and around the Letterkenny area where Mica is also a huge issue.

“A number of people could not attend the initial meetings in Inishowen so we are returning there also.”

Unlike the previous meetings where people could be accommodated on an individual basis, the latest meetings with be a public briefing but there will be plenty of time for questions from the floor.

Again there is no fee involved to attend.

Last week the Oireachtas held a hearing into the MICA scandal.

A large number of affected homeowners made contact with Coleman Legal in the aftermath of the hearing in a bid to get clarification on a number of matters which may arise if they joined the multi-party court action.

The main concerns are about the exclusion of the testing of foundations and the fact that many property owners are excluded from the Scheme such as commercial and farm buildings as well as holiday homes.

As it stands many homeowners will suffer losses not covered by the Scheme and also their losses will exceed the proposed Scheme threshold.

Participation in the grant now allows for each homeowner to retain their right to pursue the losses they have not received in a grant, their shortfall.

Mr Coleman also explained that as well as seeking the balance to allow homeowners to get 100% of the costs to rebuild their homes, damages will also be sought for mental health issues arising out of the Mica scandal.

“This is a very real issue and we will be pursuing various parties through the courts because of the stress and mental health issues people have suffered directly as a result of what they have been put though because of these defective blocks,” he added.

The first meeting takes place on Friday, July 1st at 7pm in The Mount Errigal Hotel, Letterkenny.

There are two more meetings taking place the following day, Sat, July 2nd at 11am in the Strand Hotel, Ballyliffin and later that evening at 7pm in the Malin Head Community Centre.

The Coleman Legal team will be on hand and will outline your rights and discuss your options.

No appointment is needed and participation is FREE of charge.
