Holiday Accident Compensation Claims

Understanding Your Rights

Holiday accidents or illness can sometimes result in serious personal injuries and a great deal of distress – and even minor incidents often cause unnecessary pain and stress at a time when you should be relaxing and enjoying yourself. If you’ve been injured or suffered from sickness while on holiday, because of someone else’s negligence or a third party lack of safety measures, you could be entitled to compensation.

Whether holidaying at home or abroad, your hotel, holiday tour operator, hire car company and any other holiday-related firm, all have a duty of care to keep you safe throughout your trip. If this hasn’t been your experience, we can advise you on the best way to proceed and provide ongoing support and guidance should you decide to make a claim.
