Law is a complex topic enough. With every country having it’s own legal system and culture, it really does make sense to leave it to the professionals. Nearly all accident abroad claims are funded by what is known as a no win no fee agreement (conditional fee agreement), whereby we only deducted a fee for running your case if we win it. All of this will be explained up front, so you know exactly what to expect.
Some countries, the UK included, have strict timeframes for making a claim.
Get in touch now for your free consultation, if only to put your mind at rest. Our friendly claim handlers are waiting to take your call – 0800 028 2060. Or alternatively claim online.
After any accident, it is important to gather as much evidence against the opposition in order to give yourself the best chance of successfully claiming.

You should report the accident to the hotel owner, business owner or travel representative at the time of the accident, and where appropriate, ensure that the accident is reported in the accident book.
Be sure to keep all receipts, tickets and any other documentation pertaining to your accident including taxis to the doctors or hospital, flights, medical receipts etc, as these may be used as evidence and as part of the case for claiming compensation abroad.
