ACCIDENTS & INJURIES

CLAIM CIRCUMSTANCES

Accidents and injuries while on holiday can cause much distress as well as inconvenience. The term accident is often misused as many injuries result from negligence by a particular party. Some examples are:
  • Tripping on poor or damaged surfaces.
  • Slipping on wet or shiny floor surfaces.
  • Being struck by falling objects.
  • Being involved in a road traffic accident.
  • Collapse of furniture.
  • Burns and scalds from food containers.
  • Falling from un-fenced areas.
  • Poor segregation at public events.
  • Lack of warning notices in hazardous circumstances.
  • Damaged or shoddy electrical wiring.
  • Infrastructure failure or collapse.
  • Inadequate or non-existent fire precautions.
Obviously, accidents or injuries due to one's own negligence are not actionable. However, there can be a situation where an injury is made worse by poor medical attention or a lack of response by the responsible parties.

When compiling your claim please take into account the comments on our evidence page and if you have a any queries please contact us by email, telephone or fax. The contact details are on our contact page.
