Injured abroad? You could claim.

If you have been injured abroad and you live in England or Wales, you are entitled to make a claim when you return home. You won’t have to return to the country where the accident happened for court or medical examinations. In many cases, we are able to settle out of court. On occasion where we do have to start court proceedings, we can proceed in the High Court or County Court in England or Wales.

In some cases, although the case will be decided by an English (or Welsh) judge, foreign law determines “blame” and the amount you can claim.

The law does vary from country to country. It is important to make sure that you get the right advice. A number of our specialist injury lawyers are members of the Pan-European Organisation of Personal Injury Lawyers and have excellent contacts with law firms in other countries. We have access to advice on questions of foreign law, should they arise in your case.
Many of our lawyers are fluent in foreign languages, including Spanish, Portuguese, Polish, Romanian, Bulgarian, Turkish, Hungarian and Russian. This makes it easier for us to obtain police reports and medical reports and to liaise on your behalf with foreign lawyers where the need arises. Some are dual qualified and have a working knowledge of the legal systems in other countries.
