What No Win No Fee Means

If you’re wondering what making a claim with no win no fee solicitors covering Caerphilly involves, let us give you some guidance. In simple terms, your solicitor would be able to take on your claim under a no win no fee agreement. This agreement is a document that you and your solicitor would both sign. It covers the terms and conditions under which your solicitor would be paid for their services. You would not need to pay a retainer for the lawyer to begin your case. They would be paid a success fee from your compensation settlement, and this would be detailed in the agreement as a percentage amount. If they fail to win your case, if you have a valid claim, then you would not be required to pay them for their services. Now we’ve covered how these claims work, we can now look at some of the different kinds of claims these solicitors could take on.

No Win No Fee Claims For Caerphilly Car And Road Accidents

Road traffic accident claims are perhaps one of the most common types of claims we are asked about. In Wales, in 2018, police recorded 4215 casualties on Welsh roads. If you’ve had a road accident in Caerphilly that you were not at fault for, then you could claim compensation not just for the injuries, whether that is whiplash, head injuries or broken bones for example, but also for expenses associated with the Caerphilly road accident. This could include the likes of loss of earnings, childcare costs, care costs, medical and travel expenses, for example.

A no win no fee solicitor could help with claims that you have sustained avoidable injuries in, such as:

  • A car accident where you were sideswiped by another vehicle when they dangerously overtook you
  • A traffic accident where another driver hit your car head-on
  • A motorbike accident where you were knocked off your bike by a driver that wasn’t paying due care and attention to the road
  • A pedestrian accident  where a driver failed to stop at a zebra crossing

Even if a driver did not have insurance or did not stop at the scene of an accident they caused, you may still be able to claim compensation. The Motor insurance Bureau (MIB) exists for just such circumstances. To discuss your claim in more detail, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Medical Malpractice Claims Against Doctors, Dentists And Other Practitioners

Making a medical negligence claim could be stressful. Not only might you still be suffering the after-effects of the negligent treatment you received, but you may also be financially disadvantaged, especially if your income has reduced because you have had to spend time off work recovering. Having a no win no fee solicitor on your side when putting through a claim for medical malpractice from doctors could be invaluable. Not only could they take the stress of building a case from your shoulders, but they could also use their experience and knowledge to build a strong case that could be hard for the liable party to refute.

The types of claims you could make that involve clinical negligence could vary. In simple terms, if your personal injury lawyer could prove that negligence has caused you harm, and if the negligence hadn’t happened you would be in a better physical or mental condition, then you could have a claim. This could fall under:

  • Hospital negligence – hospital-acquired infections, misdiagnosis, blood test negligence and more…
  • Childbirth negligence – failure to notice distress in labour, failure to diagnose a maternal condition, and more…
  • Surgical negligence – failure to remove instruments from the surgical field, mistakes due to negligence in surgery and more…
  • Dental negligence – wrong tooth extraction, failure to spot oral cancers, and more…
  • Care home negligence – failure to treat bedsores, failure to dispense medicines, neglect and more…
  • GP negligence – Misdiagnoses, late diagnosis, prescription errors and more…

These are just a few examples. Whether you’ve experienced private healthcare negligence or NHS negligence, why not call the advisors from our team for advice and support.

Claim Compensation For A Work Accident In Caerphilly

If you have suffered an accident because your employer has not taken reasonable steps to protect your health and safety at work, and you were injured, you may be able to retain the services of a personal injury lawyer on a no win no fee basis to help build a case against your employer.

In addition to this, you could also look into making personal injury claims for work-related illnesses or conditions, such as tendonitis, COPD, Industrial deafness, Asbestosis and more.

What needs to be proven in both types of claims is that your injuries, illness, or condition may not have happened if your employer had taken action to protect you from harm or reduce your exposure to risks as much as possible.  Some examples of the types of claims that could be made might include:

  • You developed a Repetitive Strain Injury because your employer did not set up a workstation correctly, and did not allow you to take regular breaks from repetitive movements, such as typing.
  • You developed dermatitis because your employer did not provide you with gloves when working with chemicals.
  • You slipped on a wet floor that was not signposted or cleared up on the office floor and broke your leg.
  • You were trapped in machinery because your employer failed to fit safety guards.
  • And more…

If you feel that you could have a work-related claim, why not call us and see if one of our panel of no win no fee solicitors covering Caerphilly could assist with your case?

Compensation For Victims Of Violent Crimes In The UK

According to the police, between the months of October 2018 and September 2019, in St James, 256 reports of violent or sexual offences were recorded. Should you be one of the victims of violent crime and you suffered injuries, you could retain the services of a solicitor to help you in making a claim through the government-run scheme Criminal Injuries Compensation Authority (CICA). You could claim if you were:

  • Injured as a victim of crime
  • Injured as someone trying to stop a crime
  • Mentally scarred by witnessing a violent crime

The time limit for making a claim for criminal injuries through CICA is just two years from the date of the incident in most cases.

Historical Sexual Abuse Time Limits

Unfortunately, some victims of sexual abuse that happened when they were younger could struggle to process what has happened to them. Because of this, they may not report the abuse to the police until later, as they may have felt unable to talk about it. In these cases, an exception to the time limit could be made, and no win no fee solicitors covering Caerphilly may be able to help with this. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you are in this situation, as we will do everything possible to help you.

Of course, you are not restricted to making claims for the above situations. If you’ve been injured or made ill by someone else’s actions or negligence, you could make a claim for compensation with no win no fee solicitors covering Caerphilly, as long as third-party liability can be proved. This could include:

Investment And Pension Mis-Selling Claims

If you have purchased a financial product and found it had fees and charges you weren’t made aware of when it was sold to you, it could have been mis sold. Likewise, if you have been sold a financial product or service that isn‘t suitable for your needs, you could also have been a victim of mis selling. The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) dictates that financial institutions and advisors should practice fair selling techniques and they should fully inform you of risks, fees, charges applicable to the products they sell you. They should also not pressure you into making a decision on a product. If they do not do so, and you have lost out financially as a result then you may wish to seek out a no win no fee solicitor to help you with a claim.

Caerphilly Tenancy Deposit Claims

If you’ve paid a deposit to your landlord after April 2007, they should have deposited it in a protection scheme approved by the government (a TDS).

If they failed to use an approved TDS or failed to tell you the details of the deposit scheme they used, or unfairly held your deposit, you could look into whether a solicitor could help you make a claim.

The amount of compensation could vary from case to case, but could be up to triple your initial deposit.

No Win No Fee Housing Disrepair Compensation

Have you experienced housing disrepair? Did it cause you to suffer financial or physical harm?

In order to successfully make a claim for housing disrepair, you need to have followed the correct protocol for reporting the issues and that your landlord was aware of them and did nothing to fix them.

If you’d like to know more about what could lead to no win no fee housing disrepair claims, then simply call our team of friendly advisors.
