The No Win No Fee Agreement
Rules came into effect in April 2001 that enable us to act on a 'no win no fee' basis. However, in order for us to do this, we must first arrange for you to sign an agreement, known as a 'Conditional Fee Agreement', that sets out how our costs are recovered from the other side.
A Conditional Fee Agreement is a way of paying for our services (no win no fee). It sets out your responsibilities and our responsibilities.
What costs are covered?
• Your claim for damages
• Enforcing an agreement, a court judgment or a court order
• Any appeal by your opponent
What is not covered?
• Any counterclaim against you
• Any appeal you might make against the final court judgment or court order
From your point of view, the important feature of this no win no fee agreement is that, should your accident claim be unsuccessful, you will not be expected to pay any of our costs.
If you WIN
You recover 100% of your damages. All or most of your legal costs should be recovered from the other side.
No Legal Costs, Win or Lose
