Claim Compensation With No Win No Fee Solicitors

Before we explain the benefits of no win no fee claims, we’ll go through the way in which these claims work.

Before your claim begins, you would be issued with a document called a Conditional Fee Agreement (or CFA). This is a document that would cover all of the important payment conditions attached to your case. Your lawyer’s fees would be detailed in this document as a percentage amount – this would be the percentage of your payout. However, it cannot be more than 25%, as per the government cap. This would only be payable once your compensation settlement came through. If you had a valid claim but your lawyer wasn’t able to secure you any compensation, then this ‘success fee’ would not be payable. Some further benefits of claiming with a no win no fee solicitor could include:

  • No payment required to begin a claim.
  • Less financial risk to you.
  • Your lawyer would only take on cases they felt sure they could win.
  • And more…

To talk over these benefits in more detail or find out more about our panel of no win no fee solicitors covering Canvey Island and the fees they charge, simply give us a call.

Canvey Island Car And Traffic Accident Claims

One of the more common types of claims that our panel of solicitors could help with might include Canvey Island car accident claims. According to the government’s 2018 statistics, over 160,000 people were injured that year on roads in the UK, so if you’ve been involved in a road accident in Canvey Island, you would not be alone in having suffered injuries in a road accident. If someone else was at fault for the accident you’ve been injured in, our panel of experts covering Canvey Island could help you claim compensation for your injuries as well as costs associated with the accident you’ve had. You could claim if:

  • You were a motorcyclist injured in a Canvey Island crash because another driver ran a red light.
  • You were hit in a Canvey Island car crash when a driver dangerously overtook you.
  • You suffered whiplash when another car was driving too close to you and failed to brake in time to avoid rear-ending your vehicle.
  • You were knocked over on a pedestrian crossing by a driver under the influence.
  • And more…

If the road user failed to stay at the scene of the accident, and was untraceable, or was not insured to use the vehicle they were in, you may be under the misapprehension that you would not be able to claim, but a solicitor could still assist you by putting a claim into the Motor Insurance Bureau (MIB).

Have you been a victim of clinical malpractice?

If so, then you might wish to work with one of our panel of medical negligence solicitors covering Essex to claim compensation.

You may be under the misapprehension that medical negligence claims could only be made for negligence within the NHS, however you can also make claims against private practices and hospitals too. This is because all healthcare professionals (whether private or NHS) have a duty to care for patients and if they fail to act responsibly, and you’re harmed as a result, you could make a claim for clinical negligence compensation. Claims could include:

  • Dental negligence – Wrong tooth extraction, failure to notice oral cancer, negligent advice, etc.

How Long Would I Have To Claim?

The personal injury claims time limit for medical negligence could differ depending on when the negligence was notices. In some cases, it might be spotted straight away which would usually mean you’d have three years from the date of the negligence to claim. If it was not spotted for some time, then you might find that you could claim within three years of the date it was discovered. There are some exceptions to these situations, however, so do check with our team what your time limit could be.

Claim For A Work Injury In The Course Of Your Employment

If you’ve obtained a work injury in the course of your employment, you may be wondering whether or not it could lead to you being able to make a personal injury claim. A claim of this nature could be made if your employer was to blame for an accident that caused your injuries. But this does not mean they did not have to directly caused the accident, by pushing or tripping you, for example. If an employer has not actively sought to protect your health and safety and you have been injured in an accident that could have been avoided, they could be held liable. Examples could include:

  • You were injured by becoming trapped in machinery because your employer had not fitted safety guards.
  • You were injured by lifting a heavy box because you had not received manual handling training.

Compensation For The Withholding Of A Tenant’s Deposit

Before your tenancy commences, your landlord is required to place your rental deposit in a protection scheme that has been approved by the Government. This could be one of several different Tenancy Deposit Schemes (or TDS) that are certified to protect the amount for the entirety of the tenancy agreement.

If your landlord does not do this, or they withhold a tenant’s deposit unfairly, you may be eligible to claim compensation for this. For example, your landlord cannot withhold or deduct certain amounts from the total amount without rational reason to do so. This could be for missed rental payments or damage to the property by the current tenants.

A solicitor could help put together a claim that could bring you anywhere between one and three times your initial rental deposit in compensation.

If you have broken heating systems, broken windows and doors, broken sanitaryware, leaking pipes, damp or mould within your home, you could class these as examples of disrepair. If you have contacted your landlord about the disrepair and they have failed to act to repair any damage within the property, and you suffer financially or physically due to this, then you could consider making housing disrepair claims for compensation.

A solicitor could assist with:

  • Claims where you have been injured by disrepair (e.g. on broken windows, unsafe flooring etc.)
  • Claims where you have been made ill by disrepair (e.g. from damp, mould, carbon monoxide etc.)
  • Claims where your personal items have been destroyed or damaged by disrepair (water leakage etc.)
  • Claims where you have had to pay high utility bills because of disrepair (faulty heating systems, water leaks etc.)
