Accident Abroad Solicitors Belfast
Legal advice for people injured on holiday or during trips abroad.

Accident abroad solicitors in Belfast
If you have been injured while on holiday or during a trip abroad, the legal position can be more complex than for an accident in Northern Ireland.
O’Hare Solicitors advises clients in Belfast and across Northern Ireland on accident abroad and holiday injury claims, including accidents occurring in the Republic of Ireland.
Can I make an accident abroad claim?
Whether you can make a claim, where it can be brought and the time limits that apply will depend on factors including where the accident happened, how the trip was booked and who may have been responsible.
Because different legal rules can apply to accidents overseas, obtaining advice promptly can be important.
Common holiday accident claims
We advise on a range of holiday accident claims, including road accidents, slips and falls at hotels, injuries at theme parks and water parks, food poisoning and accidents during organised excursions.
Accidents abroad can also involve unfamiliar transport, local safety arrangements and practical difficulties obtaining treatment or returning home.
Package holidays and independently booked trips
The route available for pursuing a claim may differ depending on whether the holiday was booked as a package or independently.
Where a tour operator, hotel, transport provider, excursion provider or another organisation may have been involved, our solicitors can review the booking arrangements and circumstances before advising on the potential legal route.
Investigating an accident abroad
O’Hare Solicitors can help establish what happened, identify the parties that are responsible and review the evidence relevant to a potential claim.
The appropriate process and jurisdiction will depend on the individual circumstances.
Injuries and financial losses
Where an accident abroad claim succeeds, the compensation and losses that may be recoverable will depend on the circumstances and applicable law.
Depending on the case, relevant losses may include the effects of the injury and evidenced costs arising from medical treatment, travel, accommodation or repatriation.
