Here at The Injury Lawyers we believe that you should be getting all of the compensation which is owed to you. That’s why we do not take a penny of our client’s money for most cases like public liability and employers’ liability cases. We recover our legal fees from the other side if we win, and if we lose we can write them off.

In addition to this we offer advice to those who aren’t even our customers on a no obligation basis.

If you are shopping around for the perfect lawyer to represent you for your claim for personal injury compensation, you may fall within one of the following common categories

1. You have yet to speak to anyone and you are unaware of the recent legal reforms that have left lawyers charging clients for making a claim.
2. You have spoken to a few firms and found they will all deduct 25% from your payout and perhaps even ask you to pay for insurance for your case.
3. You thought you’d found a good lawyer until you got their paperwork and discovered they had neglected to inform you they are taking 25% of your payout and asking for insurance payment!

The above is based on what we have found from the thousands of people who contact us. So whether you have found this article by searching for lawyers in general and had no idea about the changes, or whether you are hunting for the “Holy Grail” that is a genuine 100% compensation offer, you can look no further!

Even though the law changed on April 1st, meaning other lawyers will now take up to 25% of your personal injury compensation claim, we are still offering you the opportunity to keep all 100% of your compensation.

The new rules mean that lawyers are unable to recover all of their legal fees from the other side. But instead of taking the money that is rightfully yours, we’re taking the hit instead. Why? Because we are a national firm of specialist personal injury lawyers who take on and win such a high volume of cases that we can afford to take the hit.

Many people never bother putting in a claim for compensation, even when they are entitled to do so. One of the biggest fears is losing the claim. So we address the big question – is it worth the hassle and the cost?

First things first, we operate a genuine no win, no fee basis. We only take your claim on if we think we have a good enough chance of winning the case. If we don’t win, we write off our fees so we don’t get paid. It’s a cost benefit analysis for us – are we prepared to fund the case on the basis that we might not be paid?

In past years, 100% compensation has been advertised and given to clients of law firms on a no win no fee basis. From 1^st April 2013 this has become somewhat of a thing of the past, as The Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Act (or LASPO) has changed the law so that lawyers cannot obtain a success fee and after the event insurance premiums for most cases from the other side.

What is a success fee?

A success fee is something which law firms charge to increase their fees because their client has succeeded. This helps to fund no win no fee claims as some cannot be won. Before 1^st April 2013, this was recovered from the other side; after 1^st April 2013, the law changed and these fees cannot be recovered from the other side and law firms can take up to 25% directly from their client’s compensation to cover this fee.

April 2013 saw the biggest shake up in the personal injury claiming world as the government changed the law to stop lawyers recovering all legal fees from the losing party. For years claimants have been able to recover all of their legal fees and keep all 100% of their payout, which is fair because why should the victims have to pay to claim?

Unfortunately our wonderful government decided to change the law and now lawyers are charging clients up to 25% of their compensation claim to cover the fees that are no longer recoverable from the other side.

Genuine 100% Compensation

This is a genuine offer and there are no catches or hidden charges. It isn’t a clever cover up or some sneaky way of wording our agreement so you still get charged – it’s a genuine offer.

With the world of personal injury shaken to its core in light of the reforms that took place this April, most accident victims now find themselves being charged by lawyers if they win their case. The reason for this is that lawyers are no longer able to recover all of their legal fees from the opponent as they used to be able to. As such, the bill has fallen on to the innocent victims to pay.

But if there is one thing we cannot stand here at The Injury Lawyers, it’s the idea that clients are being charged when they have been injured through no fault of their own.

That’s why we have continued our 100% compensation promise for most types of accidents.

When making a claim for compensation, you can claim for the care and assistance given to you by your friends and family. Care and assistance can be claimed for as long as it is above the standard care which is usually expected; meaning it would have to be more than the usually household chores.

Examples of care and assistance:

• Feeding and Cooking you because you cannot do it yourself.
• Personal hygiene and assisting when getting washed or dressed  because you cannot do it yourself.
• Taking the individual to and from medical appointments or for treatment etc.
• Carrying out general household tasks such as cleaning, shopping and childcare duties

A claim can also be made for the expenses experienced by those caring for you. Those caring for you may incur petrol and parking costs when taking you to and from your appointments, or may incur costs for shopping when helping with your household chores.
