What Is A Conditional Fee Agreement?

Conditional Fee Agreements (CFA’s) are the technical name for what is often meant by the term ‘no win no fee claim’. With a CFA you will not need to pay for any initial legal costs, nor pay for your solicitor if it is not successful. Under the CFA framework, you will only pay for the services of a solicitor on the condition that they win your claim. If your claim is not successful you will not need to pay the solicitor for their work.

Before you choose to go ahead with your personal injury claim, the person handling your claim should fully explain the details of how your Conditional Fee Agreement will work. You will need to agree upon a success fee with the solicitor in the event you win your claim. How much the personal injury solicitor handling your case will charge may vary. They can not deduct more than 25% of the total amount of damages paid to you. You can learn more about no win no fee claims in this guide.

More Accident Or Injury Claims

Above we have looked at some of the most common types of personal injury claims which are made with our panel of solicitors. However, this is not an exclusive list of the different circumstances in which people may be injured and for which claims may be made.

Another of the most commonly claimed for types of accidents are falls, slips, and trips. We have a dedicated guide to these on our site. Other examples of personal injury claims may include those for injuries caused by negligence in a beauty salon. If a hairdresser did not perform a patch test for a new hair dye before application and you had a serious allergic response, you may be able to make a claim.

Claim Compensation For Pension And Investment Mis-Selling

In addition to claims for accidents and injuries, our panel of no win no fee solicitors covering Gillingham could also help if you think that you have been mis-sold a financial product or service. This may include having been mis-sold a pension or other form of investment. To claim compensation for pension mis-selling you may need to show that you have been financially affected by the mis-selling.

The selling of financial products in the UK is overseen by the Financial Conduct Authority. They state that any services sold to you should be done so in a way that is fair, clear and which does not mis-lead you.

If the service provider did not provide you with the right advice to meet your specific needs and if they did not make sure that you were aware of any potential risks from taking out this product (such as the value of an investment being able to go down as well as up), it may have been mis-sold to you. You should also be informed about any costs associated with the products.

For more information regarding financial mis-selling, please contact our advisors today.

Tenant Deposit Protection Compensation Claims

If the deposit you paid to your landlord was not correctly protected or was not returned to you, you may be able to make a tenant deposit protection compensation claim. If your deposit has not been correctly handled by your landlord there are statutory amounts of compensation which you could claim.

Under the Housing Act 2004 (Section 213) private landlords are required to put the deposits paid by a tenant into one of three authorised schemes. They must then also provide the tenant with specific information about this scheme within 30 days of receipt of the deposit.

If the landlord has not followed these guidelines, the tenant may be able to claim compensation of one to three times the initial deposit.

To make a no win no fee claim in regard to your deposit, your solicitor may require information such as copies of your tenancy agreement, proof that you paid your deposit to the landlord, any related correspondence between you and the landlord, evidence you have paid all rent and evidence that you searched on the different tenancy deposit schemes for your records.

Housing Disrepair Compensation Claims

It can be quite common for a rented property to experience some level of wear and tear during a tenancy. As a tenant, you should make sure the property is clean, and that you comply with any maintenance requirements in your tenancy agreement. Landlords are also obliged by law to carry out repairs that are needed to ensure that the property is safe for people to live in. This duty may extend to carrying out a repair that is needed to plumbing works, or to provide proper cleaning and care if rising damp or black mould is affecting the property.

If your landlord has failed to fulfill their duties to maintain the property you may suffer injury, develop an illness, or find that your personal items are damaged. At this point you may be able to make a housing disrepair compensation claim against the landlord. Before you make a claim in respect of housing disrepair in England and Wales, there are pre-action steps which should be followed.

Please speak to a member of our team to see if you could make a housing disrepair compensation claim.
