An Accident Aboard; Illness on Holiday
Making a claim for something that happened abroad can be tricky and you will definitely need professional help. You also need to consider that countries have various legal time limits on claims, so you can’t delay; you have to make your claim as soon as possible. And when you think that you might have to gain information and witnesses statements from a location, sometimes halfway around the world, then you will need a good team behind you.
If you are part of a package tour, then things can be easier, but if you arranged your own holiday, then it can be more awkward, but first call should be Action Claims, as we can talk you through the issues.
Bear in mind that there are a large number of incidents which give cause for a claim, and these include:
- mishap in your hotel room;
- accident at your holiday resort;
- car crash (as a driver, passenger, or pedestrian);
- poisoning from poor food hygiene, bad food itself;
- accidents whilst ski-ing, or diving, or mountaineering.
