Holiday Accident Solicitors

Holidays are supposed to be a fun and happy time, however all too often things happen that aren’t your fault when you least want them to happen. If you have suffered an injury on holiday that wasn’t your fault, perhaps whilst in the water or in your apartment, or you have been involved in a road traffic accident or become ill from food poisoning, you could be entitled to make a holiday illness or holiday accident compensation claim.

For more information, contact the holiday accident and illness solicitors at Alkers. Our experienced team regularly handle compensation clams for clients from Blackpool, the wider Lancashire area and the UK in general. Start your holiday accident compensation claim today; contact us on freephone 0800 00 55 44, or via the enquiry form.

Claiming Compensation for Holiday Accident or Illness

Contrary to popular belief, you can actually claim for injuries suffered on holiday, or whilst travelling abroad, in the UK courts. Many people still wrongly believe that they are required to follow up any holiday accident claim in the country where the incident occurred. This means many people are losing out on money which is rightfully theirs to claim.

Claiming Travel Compensation

If you have suffered an injury as the result of an accident whilst travelling on a ferry, plane, train or bus you may be able to make a claim for travel compensation. There are strict guidelines and time constraints placed on certain travel-related claims; contact us immediately if you are seeking advice about this.

‘No win, no fee’ Compensation

Our holiday illness solicitors accept compensation claims on a strictly ‘no win, no fee’ basis, meaning our clients are able to keep 100% of the compensation awarded by the court or agreed in an out of court settlement. Our aim is to help our clients get the compensation they deserve following holiday and/or travel accidents, helping them to cover medical fees and the loss of enjoyable holiday time.

Alkers Solicitors have experience in a number of different types of holiday claim. To find out more information about the specific types of holiday compensation claim click on one of the links below:
