Accidents Abroad

Accident and illness can happen at any time but perhaps one of the most difficult situations is when this happens abroad, either on holiday or business. We have a team of lawyers with the expertise you need to help you make a claim if you were injured or suffered illness while abroad.

Whether on holiday or working abroad, we have a dedicated team that may be able to help you if you have been injured whilst overseas. The law relating to foreign jurisdictions can be complicated and requires specialist expertise in navigating different legal processes throughout Europe and the rest of the world.

We have a network of lawyers worldwide that we can call on to guide you to a successful conclusion of your claim.

We’ve experience in a wide range of accidents abroad, including:

  • On the road
  • During adrenaline filled activities and sports
  • In hotels and swimming pools
  • Food poisoning

The law relating to cross border claims is complex and requires expert advice from a lawyer with experience in the area.  The time limit for bringing a claim from an accident which happens abroad can be much shorter than in Scotland.  It is therefore important that you seek specialist input as soon as reasonably practicable.

We will meet with you and set out the various necessary steps in pursuing a claim and approach the claim in a way tailored to your specific needs.

We are able to consider a variety of funding options, including ‘no win no fee’.
