No Win No Fee Claims Explained
If you ever find yourself in need of making a personal injury claim, it can be stressful and difficult for people to be able to afford legal assistance. A no win no fee solicitor takes on cases on the basis that they will only charge their client if the claim is successful. In the event of a successful claim, a solicitor’s fee is then capped at 25% of the awarded compensation. If the solicitor loses the case, then the client does not pay for the solicitor’s legal fees.
A no win no fee agreement takes the pressure off those who worry about being able to afford the legal fees that come with making a claim as well guaranteeing that you don’t pay any fees to your solicitor if your claim is unsuccessful.
