Compensation for woman injured on package holiday
01 November 2011
Our client booked a package holiday to a popular holiday destination through a leading holiday tour operator. Upon her arrival at the hotel, she tripped over a ledge on the floor, causing her suffer a serious arm injury. Her holiday was ruined as a result of her injury. We advised that the tour operator was responsible for her accident as the ledge posed an obvious risk and the area was unlit.
The tour operator initially denied liability so we obtained further evidence and commenced Court proceedings. Faced with the prospect of Court proceedings, the tour operator was prepared to negotiate. We succeeded in obtaining compensation for our client for the pain and suffering as well as financial losses and her ruined holiday.
