No Win No Fee Solicitors Herne Bay
In the moments where you have been injured by a negligent party, it can be quite a traumatic and stressful event. Not only could your physical health be affected, but your psychological well-being could also suffer. If you have been involved in an accident that was caused by third party negligence, then you might be searching for a no win no fee solicitor covering Herne Bay.

Whether you’ve been affected by medical negligence or a work-related injury, a no win no fee solicitor from our panel could handle your claim and provide you with legal advice and support throughout the process.
It is worth remembering that all potential claims for compensation could be affected by a claims time limit and each time limit can vary. For example, a personal injury claims time limit is usually 3 years, meaning a claim of this nature should be made within 3 years of the negligent event. In some cases, a time limit can begin once injuries caused by negligence, such as PTSD, have been officially diagnosed.
For more information regarding time limits or the claims process, please do not hesitate to contact a member of our team. Our advisors are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. They can offer free legal advice (of no obligation) to discuss your potential claim in greater detail and highlight whether your claim meets the applicable time limit.
Conditional Fee Agreements Explained
If you have been affected by the negligent actions of a third party, then a solicitor from our panel could offer you a no win no fee agreement. This arrangement may also be referred to as a Conditional Fee Agreement (CFA) and is only offered to those who have a valid claim for compensation. An arrangement of this nature serves as a mutual agreement between the solicitor and the claimant, outlining the payment aspects of the claim ahead of time.
In the event a solicitor accepts a claim that has a successful outcome, they will proceed in taking a success fee from the final settlement. This fee acts as payment for the services that they have provided, and by law, this fee is capped at 25%. However, if a solicitor fails to attain a settlement after accepting a claim, then the client will not be held accountable for their solicitor’s time and services. Therefore, no win no fee agreement could reduce the threat to your finances.

In that process, the advisors should outline all potential options, hidden fee’s, and risks to your finances. A financial advisor is bound by the law to be honest, factual, and unbiased throughout the process. In doing so, they cannot persuade or misinform your decision. The ultimate conclusion should be made without any interference or misleading or unfactual knowledge.

No Win No Fee Tenant Deposit Protection Scheme Claims
It is outlined within the law that a landlord who takes a tenancy deposit from a resident is required to put this deposit into a protection scheme within 30 days. This law ensures that landlords cannot use the deposit for anything other than its sole purpose, and respectively, the deposit creates a mutual agreement between the tenant and the landlord. When an occupancy comes to its end, the tenant will presumably expect to receive their deposit within the legal timeframe of 10 days. However, a landlord will only return the deposit if the tenant has successfully:
- Paid Bills On Time
- Haven’t Damaged The Property
- Met The Terms Of The Tenancy Agreement
If you have met all of the requirements outlined above and have not received your deposit, then you could have grounds to pursue a claim. You may also have grounds to make a claim if your landlord has failed to follow these guidelines provided by Shelter.org:
- Protect The Deposit Throughout The Tenancy
- Provide The Tenant With Written Confirmation
- Place The Deposit Into A Government Backed Scheme
The landlord is also bound by the law to uphold the tenant’s deposit protection, but if they have failed to do so, our panel of no win no fee solicitors have the experience to handle claims of this nature. Our expert panel could attain a settlement that is between one and three times the amount of the deposit. For more information, please do not hesitate to contact a member of our team.
Herne Bay Housing Disrepair Compensation Claims
As a tenant in a rented property, you have an obligation to inform your landlord if the property falls into disrepair. Without the disrepair being brought to the landlord’s attention, it may go unresolved or cause injury, illness, or financial loss. There are many ways in which a property could fall into disrepair, and in some circumstances, a case of this nature may require the court’s involvement. If that is the case, then the pre-action protocol for housing disrepair cases outlines some relevant information that could be of use. If you choose to work with a no win no fee solicitor from our panel, they could represent your claim in the event a housing disrepair claim goes to court.
Common examples of disrepair might include:
- Mould
- Damp

- Structural Defects
A landlord has a responsibility and legal obligation to put their tenant’s safety and well-being first. But, if a landlord has been informed of the disrepair and has failed to act accordingly, causing the tenant to become injured, ill, or experience a financial loss, then the tenant could have grounds to pursue a claim for housing disrepair compensation.
