Irwin Mitchell's ample travel team wins applause for its "legal expertise, language skills and knowledge of overseas jurisdictions." The claimant travel litigation group is spread throughout offices in London, Birmingham and Málaga and it offers vast experience of handling injury and fatal accident cases, as well as holiday illness claims. Recent work includes representing a client who suffered severe injuries in an RTA in Italy and now requires 24-hour care.

Skiing Accident in France
£9,625 recovered following ski accident in France
Our client collided with another skier, as two pistes merged. Our client fractured her arm and wrist and was unable to work fully for 45 days and then had to adjust her work for another 2 months before returning to full duties. She has now a small scar that is still noticeable and has a lost a degree of mobility in her wrist.
It was agreed with both parties that due to the nature of the accident, the difficulty in establishing liability and the seriousness of both parties’ injuries, each insurer would settle the claims fully, instead of agreeing on a share liability.
Our client has received the equivalent of £9,625 for her Personal Injury claim, her lost earnings and loss of holidays.
