If you or a close member of your family has sustained a head injury in a holiday accident, it may be possible to claim compensation, provided it can be proved that the incident was the fault of another party.
This was the case for one claimant who, in 2004, suffered a traumatic head injury while on a holiday in Southern Spain.
The 52-year-old and his wife were on a "second honeymoon" and had hired a motorcycle to take a scenic motorbike tour of the mountainous regions of Andalucia the home country of the 52-year-old's wife.
However, on approaching a junction, the couple failed to stop and collided with a van. Although it first appeared that the two, despite sustaining cuts bruises and some mild concussion, were alright, over the next few days the man experienced problems with deteriorating vision.
Eventually, on consulting a specialist, it became apparent that the man had sustained serious neurological damage which had resulted in reduced visual field, difficulties with eye tracking movements and focussing dysfunction.
Sure that the holiday accident had been caused by faulty brakes on the motorcycle, the couple decided to seek the advice of a no win, no fee solicitor with a view to making a compensation claim.
The solicitor decided to investigate and, after liaising with the motorcycle tour company, discovered that they had known there had been a problem with the motorbike's brakes but had delayed taking action, believing it only to be minor.
As such the case was progressed and a five-figure settlement was reached. This payout helped the injured man receive neuro-optometric rehabilitation therapy, which, although unable to restore the man's vision to its pre-accident level, did effect sufficient improvement for the man to be able to return to work.
