Expertise And Understanding From Irwin Mitchell
Holidays are a valuable time for all of us. The opportunity to get away from work, visit a foreign country and sample new cultures is the highlight of many people's year. However, what should be remembered as an enjoyable time can be ruined by a holiday illness.
Whilst the majority of British holidaymakers return to the UK with nothing but happy memories, an alarming number of people experience serious, long lasting illnesses as a result of their stay in a hotel overseas or on board a cruise ship.
Holiday illnesses can have a devastating impact on your holiday as well as your longer term health, with some holidaymakers still suffering from the effects of their illness even after they have returned to the UK.
At Irwin Mitchell, we can help you get the justice that you deserve if you have suffered from any form of holiday illness. Our specialist travel law solicitors, including solicitors who are based overseas, can give you sympathetic and professional guidance and support with your holiday illness claim.
Handling Holiday Illness Claims With Expertise And Sensitivity
A holiday illness can be a particularly stressful experience. Aside from effects that an illness can have on your valuable holiday time, the stress of spending time in hospitals overseas, the associated costs and the effects on your health can be severe.
At Irwin Mitchell, we recognise these concerns, which is why we offer a genuinely personal service that puts you first. Using specialist travel litigation solicitors, with a wealth of expertise in holiday illness cases, and foreign lawyers who have an in-depth knowledge of the legal systems in other countries, we can offer you professionalism and support.
Holiday illnesses can be caused by a number of different issues but typically, our solicitors can help you with any of the following:
- Illness outbreaks in a hotel, including food poisoning and illnesses caused by generally poor cleanliness or hygiene
- Illness outbreaks on board a ship or cruise liner
- Food poisoning or similar illnesses in a restaurant or bar
No matter what the severity of your illness, we could help you to make a claim. Our solicitors will fight fearlessly to secure a positive settlement for your claim and, where possible, we will look to bring your holiday illness claim against your tour operator in the UK.
