Article DetailsWhat to do if you suffer a holiday accident |

| Suffering a holiday accident or injury can be disastrous, and can turn what is supposed to be an enjoyable break into a living nightmare. Factor in the unfamiliar surroundings and possible language barriers and it’s easy to understand why so many UK holidaymakers simply accept their travel company’s assessment of their rights to compensation. In situations where you believe your hotel, tour operator or travel firm may be responsible for your holiday accident or injury, it is important that you contact a professional holiday accident solicitor upon your arrival back in the UK, as you may be entitled to significant compensation. The Package Travel Regulations (1992) allow UK holidaymakers to bring ‘no win, no fee’ holiday accident claims against the firm which sold them the original package. In situations in which an individual has independently arranged their holiday, a more innovative legal approach is required, yet it is still possible to make a valid ‘no win, no fee’ claim. If you have suffered an accident or injury abroad, your compensation case will be helped by any evidence you can gather. This evidence could take the form of contact details of witnesses who are prepared to support your claims, photographs or videos of perceived negligence on the part of hotel staff or holiday reps or written evidence obtained from the doctor or hospital which treated you. Evidence in these forms could go a long way towards proving the validity of your claim and ultimately determining the amount of compensation you are eligible to receive. |
