What Is A No Win No Fee Agreement?
You may have heard the phrase ‘no win no fee solicitors’, but do you know how they work and when you can use them? The first thing to bear in mind is the personal injury claims time limit. For most personal injury claims, this is a 3-year period from the date of your accident. It could also commence from the date a doctor diagnoses your illness or injury.
Other time limits can apply to accidents involving children or financial mis-selling claims so please call to find out whether you are still within the time limit.
If you are within the time limit, our panel of solicitors covering Rochdale will usually try to find out the following before agreeing to take on your case:
- Were you owed a duty of care by the defendant?
- Did they breach that duty of care?
- Were you made to suffer because of the breach? i.e. did you suffer an injury or financial loss?
If the no win no fee solicitor agrees that you have a claim, then you won’t have to pay them up front and you don’t pay their fees if they fail to win the claim. When they do win the case, and you receive compensation, you’ll pay an agreed success fee to them for their work. This is a fixed percentage of your compensation (up to a maximum of 25%) which is deducted before you receive the rest.
A no win no fee agreement allows more people to claim because they reduce the level of financial risk and stress involved in claiming.

The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) aims to protect people buying financial products by holding financial advisors accountable under a number of rules and regulations.
If you have been sold a financial product (such as a pension, annuity or an investment) under negligent advice, you could claim compensation for any money lost.
You could claim for a mis sold pension (or other product) if:
- You weren’t told about any charges or fees associated with the product.
- The advisor didn’t take your health or lifestyle into consideration.
- A range of products wasn’t offered to you (so you couldn’t make an informed decision).
- The advisor put pressure on you to purchase a high-risk product.
To discuss whether you could claim for financial mis-selling, please call an advisor today.
Raising A Tenancy Deposit Dispute For Compensation
When the government introduced new laws around tenancy deposits it was done to safeguard deposits and help make sure tenants didn’t lose them unfairly.
You might consider raising a tenancy dispute if:
- Your deposit wasn’t paid into an eligible protected scheme within 30 days of payment.
- The landlord failed to notify you in writing where the money was deposited.
- The deposit was removed from the scheme before the end of the tenancy agreement.
One of our panel of no win no fee solicitors could help you make a claim if any of the above have happened to you.
Housing Disrepair Compensation Claims
When you enter a tenancy agreement, your landlord is obliged to maintain minimum safety standards within your property. Failure to do so could be in breach of their duty of care and lead to legal action.
You might be able to bring a case against your landlord if:
- You suffer an injury due to an unrepaired fault which you’d reported to them.
- Your personal property is damaged by the fault.
- If you have to pay for damage to be repaired yourself because the landlord didn’t.
