Due to law changes in April 2013, other lawyers are now deducting 25% from your compensation payout and they are asking for payment of insurance. This is because the law change stopped lawyers being able to recover two things from the losing side – a Success Fee, and an After The Event insurance premium.
The Success Fee is a fee that helps us to fund No Win, No Fee claims as part of our access to justice rights. The insurance is something we can take out to cover you for costs from the losing side in certain situations.
Now, we can still recover most of our fees from the other side – we just can’t recover the above fees. So other lawyers are now taking money from you to cover the fees as they don’t want to lose out.
We, however, are different!
100% Compensation Offer
We still offer you the opportunity to keep all 100% of your compensation payout. We will recover what fees we are allowed to from the other side and then waive the Success Fee charge and not ask you to pay for insurance. In fact, we self insure the case in the majority of instances, so we even cover you for the risk ourselves.
How good is that?
This is a genuine offer, and we’re doing it because we want you to keep all of your payout. We don’t think it’s fair that you have to lose money to make a claim for personal injury compensation. So we take the hit instead of you.
We can afford to do it because we only represent victims for compensation claims – so we’re efficient, and we’re very good at what we do! That means we take on and win such a high volume of cases that the reduced fees work just fine for us.
Genuine No Win, No Fee
We only operate on a No Win, No Fee basis – so if your claim does not win, we will not charge you.
We do this because we only take on a claim we think we have a good enough shot at winning. So we take on the risk of the case on the basis that we believe we have a good enough chance of making a successful claim.
We’re also, as I said earlier, very good at what we do! The other side will often just despite liability as they don’t want to pay you out. So we fight them for you!
