Claim Compensation for your Turkey Holiday Illness or Accident Abroad?
Were you ill or injured in a Turkish hotel during a holiday with a UK tour operator?
If food poisoning or shoddy hygiene conditions
at your hotel caused you to become
ill or sick while on a holiday in Turkey, our holiday compensation solicitors can help you to make a holiday illness claim. If you were unfortunate
enough to have an accident
during a holiday in Turkey our specialist team of travel lawyers will be able to offer friendly advice on making a claim.
Holidays are a sacred time when you get to put your feet up, relax or explore foreign
places, and experience different cultures. However, if your holiday is ruined
because someone else failed to either ensure your safety
or your health then your much loved trip will turn into a disaster.
What you may not have been aware of is that you can
claim compensation from your tour operator through English law
specifically the Package Travel Regulations 1992.

Accident on Holiday in Turkey – Whilst on holiday at a hotel in
the Turkish resort of Lara Beach our client slipped and fell on a wet external stairwell
near to the hotel’s swimming pool which led to the toilet facilities. Our client
sustained multiple injuries including a trimalleolar fracture of her ankle which
shattered in three places and has required extensive surgery. The hotel promptly
arranged for the steps to be coated in a non-slip coating – something that should
have been done before the accident. Our client is now in the process of claiming
substantial compensation from the tour operator including a large claim for her
loss of earnings.
