no win, no fee
If you enter into a ‘no win no fee’ agreement, there is no cost
to you in perusing the claim, win or lose.
Have you suffered an accident, illness, or a ruined holiday on
board a cruise ship or other vessel? We can make a
compensation claim, including for:
- an accident causing injury
- illness such as food poisoning or a bacterial infection
- poor quality travel or holiday that did not match its
description
Blake Lapthorn can enforce your right to compensation for injury
under international conventions where they apply, or under the
regulations governing package holidays if appropriate.
where will the claim be made?
Where your claim is made depends on where the incident occurred
during the cruise. Our specialist team will know which country’s
laws give you the most protection because we deal with worldwide
claims every day.
Our knowledge will work to your advantage. Wherever possible
your claim will be brought in the UK where the amount of
compensation is likely to be greatest. However, it may be necessary
to bring the claim in a country connected to the cruise line. Our
international network of agents adds to our ability to make the
right decision for you.
how quickly should I claim?
Contact us as soon as possible, taking advantage of our free
initial consultation. Time limits will apply to your claim –
usually two years from disembarkation from the ship. However, time
limits can vary so it is very important to act quickly.
funding your claim – the best option for
you
We will discuss all funding options with you, most personal
injury claims can be persued at no cost to you. You may have legal
expenses insurance on your travel insurance, house insurance, or on
your car insurance. Trade union membership sometimes includes legal
expenses insurance. Alternatively, your claim may be eligible for
our ‘no win no fee’ arrangement.
