FAQ

Can I claim if my accident happened abroad?

If you've been injured while on a package tour arranged by a tour operator in England and Wales, you may be entitled to compensation, even if your accident happened abroad. If you weren't on a package tour we may still be able to help. Your solicitor will be able to give you more advice about this.
