London Injury Solicitor

No Win No Fee Accident or Injury Claim

This is a format which many solicitors have taken on board as a way forward for many claimants. In the past if you were injured at work or had an accident at work you would be treated at your local hospital sent off on sick leave with no way of paying  your accruing bills. You may also have been injured to the extent that you would not be able to return to work or be permanently disabled. In those circumstances even though you would know you had a good case you would not have been in a position to engage a law firm to act on your behalf.

Fortunately that is all in the past, a solicitor will discuss your potential no win no fee accident claim with you and will be able to tell you if you have a good case. They will also discuss approximately how much compensation you will be entitled to. A good solicitor will not take on your case if they do not feel that they have a better than good chance of winning. They do not want to waste either your time or theirs.

What does No Win No Fee mean?

Simply it means that if a lawyer takes on your case and loses you do not pay anything.

However that may not always be the case, you may not have to pay your lawyer, but you may have to pay the other party expenses.

Read the small print even if you do win you may have to pay a proportion of the compensation award to the solicitor you engage.

Do be Aware

If you engage a solicitor to act on your behalf and they begin the work  involved towards your case; if you then decide to pull out, you may find a hefty bill on your doormat for their services thus far.
