Make A No Win No Fee Claim

To be able to make a no win no fee claim, a solicitor will want to see that you have a chance of compensation. To demonstrate this, you’ll need to show that:

  • You were made to suffer (physically, psychologically or financially);
  • Because somebody was negligent;
  • And that person owed you a duty of care.

If the solicitor agrees that they’ll take on your case, you’ll both sign a Conditional Fee Agreement (or CFA). This a contract between you and your solicitor which shows that you don’t have to pay the solicitor’s fees unless they secure compensation on your behalf. The CFA will explain the success fee that the solicitor will charge for a successful case. The success fee is taken from the compensation automatically, so you don’t need to find the funds to pay them yourself. By law, a success fee is limited to 25% of any compensation awarded.

As well as the criteria listed above, the claim has to be made within the relevant time limit. Here are some examples:

  • Criminal injury claim time limit: 2 years.
  • Personal injury claims time limit: 3 years.
  • Package holiday time limit: 3 years.
  • Financial mis-selling claim time limit: varies.

Any time limit listed in this guide could be different in some circumstances. Therefore, the best advice is to check with a member of our team as soon as possible.

  • Hire car or hotel transfer accidents.
  • Food poisoning.

If you have been injured as a result of  a violent crime, it is possible that you could claim compensation for your injuries. The claim won’t usually be made against the criminal, but you could make a claim through the Criminal Injuries Compensation Authority (CICA)  instead.

These claims allow for compensation to cover physical or psychological injuries as well as some financial losses caused by the injuries.

The rules for claims for criminal injury are different from personal injury claims with their own eligibility criteria. If you’d like advice on making a CICA claim, please call the number at the top of the screen for free advice.

  • Slips, trips and falls. These are among the most common form of accident. If you slip or fall because of an uneven pavement, trailing cables or a slippery floor with no warnings signs, you might be eligible to begin a claim.
