Most people are unaware that just because your accident happened abroad it does not mean that you are not eligible to claim for compensation from a defendant overseas.
Accidents can, of course, happen anywhere and at any time. In some cases, being abroad can even heighten the risk of having an accident, by being in unfamiliar surroundings and situations or from letting your guard down.
Our holiday accident solicitors can help deal with a variety of accidents and illnesses suffered on a UK holiday or holiday abroad, including:
- Road accidents abroad - car accidents, motorcycle accidents, scooter accidents, accidents whilst travelling on a bus, coach or in a taxi, cycling accidents and pedestrian accidents.
- Cruise ship accidents and illnesses
- Accidents or injuries suffered at your resort, hotel, villa, caravan park or camping site
- Water sports, skiing or other sporting accidents
- Package holiday accident compensation
- Air and airport accidents
- Swimming pool accidents
- Accidents or injuries suffered whilst on day excursions and trips
- Slips, trips or falls abroad
- Holiday illnesses abroad as a result of poor hygiene or health and safety standards resulting in food poisoning
