And it’s No Win, No Fee”
Food poisoning and health epidemics whilst on holiday or away on business.
So you've arrived at your destination - relaxation, sun, sea and sand are on the way! Or perhaps not if you're on business!
Anyway you've arrived safely. Then, after a few days, you've unknowingly eaten something that's not right and you've got food poisoning . There's nothing worse than being away from home and being confined to your hotel room due to an illness as distressing as food poisoning.
If you have been on a package holiday and quite a few people staying at the same hotel suffered the same food poisoning or illness, you may be entitled to claim compensation.
So what's to be done? Well the first thing is to get better! Then as soon as possible contact Claims Justice. Claims Justice have years of experience in handling personal injury claims, and plenty of experience in getting full compensation for people who have been the victims of food poisoning or illness whilst on holiday or travelling on business .
And it's not just the medical bills you need compensating for. You should consider claiming for the suffering you've endured and all the other costs you've racked up whilst you were ill. You might also have had to take time off work to recover. All these costs and expenses need to be taken into account when framing your claim for compensation.
Illness epidemics
So far we've concentrated on food poisoning because it's regrettably so common. But compensation claims can also be made if you're caught up in an illness epidemic.
If you booked a package holiday and the tour operator allowed you to go to a hotel or resort where they were aware that there was a problem of illness such as a virus, then if your holiday is spoilt by you contracting the illness or even if your enjoyment is damaged because you have to curtail your activities as a result, then the tour operator may well be failing in their duty of care. In practice, they should not have sent you to that hotel or resort knowing that there was a health problem and you may well be entitled to compensation for the illness and loss of enjoyment.
Food poisoning
If you've experienced food poisoning it's always important to try and determine where you may have caught it. As is the case with most trips away from home, you've probably eaten at a number of places.
The hotel buffets are particularly common causes of food poisoning because it doesn't help when the food has been sitting out for long periods in the restaurant. And it doesn't help if the hotel has a hygiene issue in the kitchens!
But of course, local restaurants, beach bars and eateries could also be to blame. That's why it will be so useful if you can find out whether any of the other people staying at your hotel or eating in the same restaurant as you fell ill at the same time
Compensation
In all developed countries hotels and restaurants have to operate to strict health and safety standards. These include the cleanliness of the kitchen, dining rooms and restaurants rooms as well as the swimming pool and toilets etc.
Naturally, if the cleanliness doesn't comply with safety guidelines, your claim will be easier to determine. In many countries, hotels and restaurants should have regular inspections to ensure that they aren't putting their clients in danger.
In any case, the Claims Adviser at Claims Justice will be pleased to assess your case and help you claim compensation. And because our solicitors work on a no win no fee basis, you'll keep 100% of your the compensation.
