If your costs of legal action aren't insured, you'll be entitled to a no-win, no-fee agreement with Simpson Millar. Just contact our Dominican Republic holiday illness team and we'll have your claim under way.
Under the terms of the Package Travel Regulations 1992, the tour operator is responsible for your wellbeing if you've bought a package vacation. The firm must be able to assure you of hotel accommodation that's as hygienic as possible, with little threat of food poisoning or infection from waterborne parasites.
So if you or one of your family suffers food poisoning or other illness at the hotel, the compensation you're entitled to is down to the tour company. And as long as your break in the Dominican Republic was sometime in the last 3 years (or with youngsters 36 months from when a teen turns 18) and your illness was the hotel's fault, you might find you've a strong case.
