Hayward Baker are a firm of specialist Personal Injury Solicitors
During what should be a relaxing and fun-filled time, accidents can occur. As well as putting a sudden stop to the enjoyment of your getaway, having an accident on holiday can cause you significant stress and worry over issues like insurance, getting home and your financial situation. When this happens, you need someone on your side.
When you’re on holiday, you might find yourself participating in activities you ordinarily wouldn’t. While this can be exhilarating, you could end up suffering a serious accident. You’re typically in an unfamiliar environment, which can increase the likelihood of a problem occurring and an injury or illness resulting.
Get in touch today to see if you could be entitled to compensation for your accident on holiday.
Some of the most common accidents on holiday include:
If you’ve had a holiday accident that wasn’t your fault, you could potentially make a claim. It is up to tour operators and package holiday providers to ensure the accommodation, travel arrangements and excursions they offer are safe and suitable.
In the instance your holiday accident was caused by an issue at a hotel or while travelling with the operator, it could be held accountable, which could help us make a successful compensation claim.
You may need to provide evidence and witness statements to help support your case, so it’s important to begin your claim as early as you can. This way, the events of your holiday accident are still fresh in your mind.
The level of compensation you could be eligible to claim for will depend on the specific circumstances of your injury or illness. Some of our previous successes could help you work out what you may be entitled to claim for, though.
After you’ve suffered an accident on holiday, the best thing to do is begin the claims process as soon as you can. When you do this, it’s more likely that you’ll be able to remember all the details of your injury or illness, which will help give your case more credibility.
When you suffer an accident on holiday, it not only spoils that experience, but can have a resulting negative impact on your life for what could be years. If this is the case, it may be reassuring to know that you could still be able to pursue a claim three years after the accident took place.
