holiday accident claim solicitor success

£28,000 damages awarded to one of our clients in compensation for an accident on holiday in Spain.

A fireman was injured when a bed at a hotel in Spain collapsed. He asked us to help and our accident compensation solicitors brought a compensation claim against the company that sold him the package holiday.

Under the Package Holiday Regulations, people who suffer a personal injury on holiday can sue UK holiday companies rather than the foreign hotels, provided that the holiday was / is a package which includes travel and accommodation.

In the case of the fireman, he was injured when a camp bed supplied by the hotel collapsed causing a serious back injury. The back injury got worse and the fireman had to retire.  The holiday company defended the accident compensation claim in court and they lost the case. The judge ruled in our clients favour, saying that the holiday company had failed to exercise "reasonable skill and care".

The fireman was awarded damages of £28,000.00
