How Do You Make A No Win No Fee Claim?

Before looking at the process for making a no win no fee claim, it’s worth taking a look at whether you could be eligible to make a claim. In general, a solicitor will want to see that you have suffered because somebody who owed you a duty of care was negligent. In those circumstances, a solicitor may offer you a no win no fee service once they’ve assessed the evidence you have to support your claim.

A no win no fee agreement is known legally as a conditional fee agreement or CFA. It is a contract signed by you and the solicitor which explains you only have to pay solicitors fees if they win your case and you receive compensation. When that happens, the solicitor will deduct their ‘success fee’ from your compensation so you don’t actually send the funds to them. Success fees are limited, by law to 25% of your compensation.

To make a claim, you need to ensure you’re within the relevant time limit. There’s a 3-year personal injury claims time limit but other claims have different time limits. Please check with an advisor if you’re unsure of what time limit applies after reading this guide.

Compensation For A Road Accident In Tunbridge Wells

When a road traffic accident in Tunbridge Wells happens, you could seek compensation if it was caused by another road user and led you to suffer any injuries. The most common injuries caused by traffic accidents include:

  • Shoulder and neck injuries including whiplash.
  • Head injuries including concussion.
  • Fractures or broken bones.
  • Soft tissue damage.
  • Back injuries.

When a car accident in Tunbridge Wells occurs, the best advice is to act quickly to secure evidence. Once vehicles start to be removed, proving what happened can be trickier. Therefore, try to:

  • Video or take photos of the scene.
  • Get the other driver’s details.
  • Look for witnesses and get their details.
  • See if there is any CCTV or dashcam footage available.
  • Attend A&E or your GP for an assessment of your injuries, no matter how minor.

Taking the actions above can significantly improve your chances of proving who was liable for the accident and claiming compensation for your injuries.

No Win No Fee Work Tunbridge Wells Accident Claims

While you’re at work, your employer has a duty of care, under the Health and Safety at Work Act (1974), to try and keep you as safe as possible.

Compensation For Other Accidents In Tunbridge Wells

In the next section we’re going to move on to other types of claim no win no fee solicitors covering Tunbridge Wells could help with. Before we do, here are some more personal injury claims that are possible:

  • If a child is injured in an accident, a parent could represent them in a compensation claim. This is possible until they turn 18. If a claim hasn’t been made by then, the child, now an adult has 3-years to make their own claim.
  • You could seek damages if you’ve been injured in a slip, trip or fall. Common reasons for this type of claim are slippery floors with no warning signs, damaged or uneven flooring, cables trailed across a walkway and poor lighting which caused a trip hazard to be difficult to see.

No Win No Fee Sold Financial Services Claims

Our panel of no win no fee solicitors covering Tunbridge Wells, Kent could help you seek compensation for financial losses if your financial advisor breached regulations set out by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA).

  • Pressured you to make a purchase.
  • Didn’t consider your health (or lifestyle) before recommending a product.

  • Didn’t provide you with the terms and conditions linked to a product.

Compensation Claims For Tenancy Deposit Disputes

When you enter a tenancy agreement, your landlord needs to secure any deposit in a government backed tenancy deposit scheme (TDS).  These should mean you only lose some or all of your deposit for valid reasons like unpaid rent or property damage.

  • Your deposit wasn’t placed into a TDS.
  • The landlord or letting agent failed to tell you about which scheme they’d used.
