Travel Insurance
BLD has particular expertise in the area of travel risks. We regularly work together with travel insurers to advise them, handle large numbers of legal disputes and respond quickly to national and international major claims. For instance, BLD lawyers were already on site hours later in the case of catastrophic events that were known from the press, supporting the care team in crisis management and subsequently assisting with the handling of claims. Another team of BLD lawyers advised the Federal Ministry of Justice on establishing the Travel Security Fund.
In the area of travel and travel insurance, we focus on the following insurance areas:
- Travel cancellation / travel interruption insurance
- Luggage insurance
- International travel health insurance
- Assistance/accident and breakdown cover services
- Travel organiser/travel agent liability insurance
- Liability insurance for companies in the wider tourism sector, such as sports and adventure organisers and charterers of aircraft and ships
- Travel recourse against all third parties in the event of a claim, e.g. local service providers, local agencies, subcontractors, etc.
- Surety insurance for travel providers (who are not covered by the German Travel Security Fund compulsory insurance)
- Personal injury
- Aviation
- Benefits from the travel security fund
In addition to litigation and consulting, BLD offers you additional customised legal solutions such as product design, crisis, claims and recourse management as well as workshops for the aforementioned areas and other areas relating to travel.
