A road traffic accident can be a traumatic and life-changing experience wherever in the world it takes place. If you've been involved in a road traffic accident (RTA) while abroad for work or leisure, our lawyers could help you claim compensation.
When an accident happens overseas, it can be hard to know what to do. The rules around claiming compensation can be different from country to country, and language barriers can make navigating these local laws difficult.
Most of the international personal injury claims we handle are made in England & Wales. But in some cases it may be beneficial to make your claim abroad. We can advise you on this in a free initial consultation about making a claim.
Compensation claims in England & Wales are normally funded through a No Win No Fee agreement. This means that there's nothing to pay upfront, and that you won’t have to pay any legal fees if your claim is unsuccessful*.
We have the largest and most successful international personal injury department in the UK, and have successfully handled thousands of road traffic accident abroad claims, winning record levels of compensation for a number of our clients.
Whether you were the driver, a passenger or a pedestrian, our lawyers have years of experience in road traffic accidents. We've helped numerous clients in accidents involving:
- Cars and taxis
- Coaches and buses
- Heavy goods vehicles (HGVs) and lorries
- Motorcycles
- Bicycles
- Pedestrians
The injuries caused by an RTA can range from relatively minor conditions severe injuries that require extensive medical care and rehabilitation. Tragically, road traffic accidents can also result in fatal injuries.
