\"100%On April 1st<\/sup> 2013, there was a huge shake-up of the personal injury claiming system that has left almost all victims facing up to 25% of their compensation being taken by their solicitor for a claim from 1st<\/sup> April onwards. The government decided that lawyers should no longer be able to recover all of their fees from the other side, meaning that lawyers now need to charge clients for certain fees.<\/p>\n

The reason why I mentioned 25% is because that is the cap that the government has placed on the charges \u2013 i.e. lawyers can\u2019t charge anymore than 25% of a person\u2019s compensation to cover these now unrecoverable fees. The 25% charge must be inclusive of VAT and can only be from damages for personal injury and past financial losses and be net of DWP CRU deductions.<\/p>\n

In addition that 25% relates only to the success fee. There is no restriction on the amount they can charge in respect of basic charges. \u00a0According to our research so far, most law firms have settled at simply charging the flat rate of 25%<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

But we here at The Injury Lawyers<\/a> dare to be different! As we always have done<\/strong>!
\n<\/p>\n

We are still offering 100% compensation for whiplash claims<\/a>!<\/em><\/strong> The two unrecoverable fees are the success fee, which is for the risk of taking on a case on a No Win, No Fee<\/a>, and the After The Event insurance premium that protects you against costs. We have taken it upon ourselves to not charge you the success fee, and pay for the insurance for the case!<\/p>\n

That means you still get 100% compensation for your whiplash claim<\/strong>!<\/p>\n

There are no hidden catches or upfront fees or anything like that. If you are awarded \u00a33,000 for your whiplash injury<\/a>, you will receive \u00a33,000 and not a penny less!<\/p>\n

But you need to ACT NOW as the rules are changing again<\/strong>…<\/p>\n

At the end of April 2013, the government in their continued infinite wisdom are slashing lawyer\u2019s legal fees. In fact, they\u2019re slashing our fees to such an extent that many law firms will probably no longer be dealing with road accident claims<\/a>. It\u2019s sad when whiplash victims face an uncertain future because the government has caved to pressure from the insurers who are a little upset that their huge profits are being eaten in to by legitimate whiplash claimants. But sadly there is little we can do about changes to legislation.<\/p>\n

So the point is, due to the extent of the cuts in legal fees, from the end of April 2013 it will probably not be feasible for us to offer our 100% compensation guarantee<\/a>. But if we can submit your claim now before the changes come in to force, we should still be able to receive our current fee level and make sure you keep every penny of your compensation.
