What Is A No Win No Fee Compensation Claim?

In a no win no fee claim, your solicitor would take your case on under an agreement, often referred to as a  Conditional Fee Agreement CFA. This agreement sets out the conditions that need to be met in order for your no win no fee solicitor to be paid their fees. Their payment would come as a percentage of the total settlement amount. This percentage is capped at 25% and is known as a success fee. This ‘success fee’ is only paid once your compensation payout has been made. If you had a valid claim but your lawyer was not successful in getting you a settlement, then you would not be required to pay their fees. Please contact one of our advisors with regards to the benefits of making a compensation claim through a no win no fee agreement. Now, let us review the types of claims a no win no fee solicitor could take on.

Claim For A Workplace Or Industrial Accident In Great Yarmouth

When an accident at work happens that causes injury, your employer should investigate the reasons for the accident, report it to the authorities where relevant and take steps to prevent the same accident from happening again. But, what happens if your employer is to blame for your accident?

Any employer has a requirement by law to ensure your safety and health are protected while you are at work. Ways in which they could do this could include, but are not restricted to:

  • Performing regular health and safety audits, assessing risks and acting to lower these risks
  • Providing the relevant training to make sure you could do your job safely
  • Giving you equipment to protect you, such as goggles, a hard hat etc

These are just a few examples. As there are different risks within every workplace, your employer’s health and safety measures should be tailored to the workplace you’re in and the work that you do.

If your employer has not taken any action to prevent a foreseeable risk, and you are injured in an accident because of their negligence, you may be able to take action against them with the assistance of a no win no fee solicitor.

You could also use a personal injury lawyer to claim for work-related conditions or illnesses, if there were foreseeable risks of you contracting such a condition and your employer did not reduce these risks. Negligence by your employer could cause work-related conditions such as:

  • Mesothelioma
  • Industrial deafness
  • Vibration white finger
  • Repetitive strain injury
  • Dermatitis

You may be worried about your position with your employer if you decide to make a claim against them. However, it might be worth mentioning here that your employer would not be allowed to treat you differently because you are making a claim against them. There is legislation in place to prevent this. You might also benefit from the knowledge that you could be highlighting risks within your workplace, which may lead to stricter health and safety measures, meaning other employees could be spared suffering in the way that you have.
