No Win No FeeNo Win No Fee means that if you do not win your accident claim, you do not have to pay your solicitor a fee. Insurance will cover you against the other side's costs and expenses. If you win your case you should receive your compensation free of any deductions, as your solicitor's costs should be paid by the other side. There are very few exceptions to this. No Win No Fee No ChanceAround 2.5 million people in the UK sustain accidental injuries every year. As a result they may lose income or independence, and face lifestyle changes. Fault may rest with the driver of another car, a public authority such as a local authority or hospital, an employer or another individual whose action or inaction was the cause of the accident and the injury sustained. Under UK law the liable party must compensate the injured person for any loss or injury sustained in an accident or accidents (i.e. the polluter pays the compensation). No Win No Fee is on the up!From a recent boom in consumers claiming compensation for injuries, only 31 per cent of accident victims actually claim compensation using legal processes. Indeed the actual number of claims for injuries following accidents has reduced since the new method of funding legal actions in personal injury claims, the ‘‘conditional fee agreement’’, was rolled out and No Win No Fee come into play. |
