    Frequently asked questions

    No Win No Fee FAQs

    Should I use a no win no fee solicitor?

    It’s strongly recommended that you use a no win no fee solicitor. No win no fee means you can fund your claim without needing to front up the often expensive costs involved with seeking legal advice for your claim.

    Using a no win no fee solicitor means you won’t be left facing legal costs if the case is lost. No win no fee funding can also cover the cost of disbursements incurred during the claim, such as obtaining medical evidence and counsel’s fees.

    Who pays my solicitor in a No Win No Fee claim?

    Entering into a No Win No Fee Agreement means that your solicitor will only get paid if you win your claim. The general rule in a no win no fee personal injury claims is that the ‘losing’ party pays the ‘winning’ party’s costs. So, if you bring a personal injury claim and are awarded compensation then you can expect some of your legal costs to be paid by the other party. The shortfall in costs as well as the insurance premium and the solicitors success fee will generally be covered from a deduction from a client’s compensation which will be agreed at the start of a claim

    If your case is unsuccessful, and you have been honest throughout, then your No Win No Fee injury claims solicitors will not charge you for the work that has been carried out on your behalf and the After-the-Event insurance policy will cover any costs or expenses that need to be paid (subject to the terms and conditions of the policy).

    What evidence do I need to provide for my no win no fee claim?

    It’s important to provide your solicitor with as much information as possible when making a personal injury claim. Initially, your solicitor will need as much information as possible about the incident itself including the date, time and any documents and witness details that could help with your No Win No Fee injury claim.

    You’ll also need to provide your solicitor with a detailed description of what happened, who you think is responsible and why. For a successful No Win No Fee accident claim, you’ll need to be able to prove that your injuries were caused because of the negligence of someone else.

    Learn more about the evidence you’ll need to provide on this page.

    Are there any other costs involved with a No Win No Fee claim?

    No win no fee gives everyone access to justice, regardless of their financial situation. You do not need to pay any legal fees upfront, and you will typically only pay for your solicitor’s work if your case is successful.

    However, you may still be obligated to pay any legal fees for any work done if you opt to withdraw from the no win no fee claim in accordance with the terms of your agreement. If you do not cooperate completely, you can also be responsible for any fees.

    Are there any disadvantages to making a No Win No Fee claim?

    No Win No Fee reduces the dangers of being financially impacted in the event that your claim is unsuccessful. However, if your case fails, you may be responsible for your opponent’s legal costs unless you have insurance.

    Does no win no fee have any hidden costs?

    No win no fee does not have any hidden costs. It is an effective way to give people access to justice, without worrying about any legal expenses should their claim fail. However, it is worth noting that some no win no fee agreements may only cover the solicitor’s legal fees, and exclude costs associated with expert fees, legal fees of the defendant’s solicitors and barrister’s fees.

    Are no win no fee solicitors any good?

    Yes, no win no fee personal injury solicitors are a very good option. Our lawyers have the relevant specialist expertise and experience to deal with your case, and it is also in their best interests to make sure that you succeed with your claim. They’ll only take on your case on the basis that they think it has a reasonable chance of success.

    Is no win no fee really free?

    Yes. A no win no fee agreement, also known as a Conditional Agreement, means the Claimant does not have to pay any legal fees up front for their claim. If you lose your claim, you won’t have to pay any legal fees.

    If you win your case, there may be a fee paid to your solicitor which is deducted from your overall damages – but only once the claim is settled.

    Can I change solicitor during my No Win No Fee claim?

    Yes, at any time. If you’re not happy with your no win no fee solicitor, it is possible to change. Choosing the right solicitor for you is important and it can affect the outcome of your case.

    If you do want to change solicitors, your current solicitors will liaise with your new solicitors on your behalf and they will sort the transfer of papers from one firm to the other etc.

    It’s recommended that you make the change as early on in the case as possible, so that your new solicitor can be up to speed with your case.

    Can I cancel a no win no fee claim?

    When you sign a Conditional Fee Agreement, you have the right to terminate your agreement with your solicitor. However, there is a caveat to this. If you cancel your no win no fee claim within the “cooling off” period set out in the agreement, you will incur no costs. If you cancel your agreement with the firm beyond that cooling off period, you run the risk of the firm charging you for the work done on your claim up to now. This is dealt with on a case by case basis.

    Can I use no win no fee for a car accident claim?

    A no-win no-fee agreement (also known as a ‘Conditional Fee Agreement’) can be used to fund any type of Personal Injury claim made, including Road Traffic Accident claims.
