What Does No Win No Fee Mean?

With a no win no fee arrangement, you don’t have to pay anything upfront.

Who Covers The Costs Under No Win No Fee Agreements?

In the event that we win your no win no fee claim for your accident, the other side will pay our costs. If you have been in a traffic accident, for example, this would be the other driver’s insurance company. If this was an accident at work, your employer’s insurance company would be responsible for making the payments. These costs will be agreed with the court. This would include any minor costs known as disbursements (such as postage or travel to court) that you might have incurred.

As professional no win no fee solicitors, we take out an insurance policy known as an “after the event” policy, which will cover those same fees if we are not able to win your claim for you. This includes our fees, any legal fees you may be liable for from the other side, and any small disbursements you may have had to pay out, the same as if you had won. This means that we are able to offer truly risk-free help when you need it most. No win no fee allows you to seek the compensation you deserve without worry. If your accident or injury wasn’t your fault, we don’t believe that you should be out of pocket trying to get the compensation you deserve.

If you pursue a claim for an accident or personal injury without a no win no fee agreement, you will pay your solicitor an upfront payment to take your case on. If the case takes longer to complete, you may make further payments for work to continue. The biggest difficulty comes if you aren’t able to win your case, as you would still be liable for these costs, and potentially also for the legal costs incurred by the other side. Legal costs can run into thousands of pounds, potentially leading to financial hardship, further stress and possibly you having to abandon the case.
