If you or a loved one has contracted Legionnaires’ disease whilst abroad, whether for work or a holiday, you’ll be desperate to get answers quickly. Our experienced lawyers have years of experience helping Legionnaires’ sufferers and their families and know what is needed to help you move forward.
Legionnaires' disease is a serious lung condition caused by infected water and is preventable with basic water management practices.
There are two factors that help Legionella spread:
- A water temperature between 20 and 45°C
- A food source in the water for bacteria – such as limescale, rust or algae
Large buildings with more complex water systems – such as hotels, hospitals or spas – are at a greater risk of legionella contamination, making it prevalent in hot foreign countries for holidaymakers.
Our experts are here to help you if you’ve contracted Legionnaires' disease either in the UK or while abroad. We’ve experience helping people claim compensation for the illness suffered and any long-term effects for both UK and international claims.
If your illness causes you to have long-term breathing difficulties, we work with Asthma and Lung UK and this organisation can offer support and advice as you look to move on with your life.
Sadly, this illness could result in the death of a loved one. If you’ve lost a loved one because they had Legionnaires’ disease, we’re here to help you.
