Accidents Whilst Abroad — Holiday Injury Compensation Claims
If you have an accident abroad, not only will it spoil your holiday, but it may leave you with financial and legal problems to deal with. Legal issues stemming from accidents abroad can be complicated and expensive. You need to make sure you are fully informed about anything you decide to do to claim back compensation if you have been injured on holiday.
Whatever your circumstances, you can ask guidance from our team of specialist personal injury solicitors ** who will help guide you on the next steps to take – call today on 01252354433^ for more information.
Make a Claim for an Accident Abroad
Even if your travel insurance covers you for medical bills, you will still have excess fees to pay, and your insurance may not cover smaller claims. Your solicitor ** will be able to guide you on whether you may be able to get some or all of these costs back, if your injury was not your fault. It may be complicated to claim against a hotel or company abroad – you may need to pursue your claim in that country’s court system, and our lawyers ** will be able to guide you.
Make sure you keep all receipts and documentation from any accidents, interactions with police or medical establishments, or doctors, whilst abroad. You may need these later if you decide to make a personal injury claim after your holiday accident.
Car Accidents Abroad
If you have been involved in a car accident abroad which was not your fault, then you may have been given a European Accident Statement. Make sure you only sign the EAS if you are sure you understand its contents.
If you were driving a hire car abroad, you need to report any accidents to the local police while you are still on holiday. You may be told to contact your local British embassy or consul. You may be able to telephone our solicitors ** from your holiday destination if you require urgent legal guidance.
Upon your return, if you think you have a case to make a personal injury claim, call our lawyers **. They will be able to examine your case and see whether it will be possible to get accident compensation for you.
