Does No Win No Fee really mean nothing to pay?
A no win no fee claim is also known as a conditional fee agreement and has mostly replaced legal aid as a way of paying out a successful compensation claim. This form of a compensation claim allows everyone access to legal assistance regardless of financial status.
The majority of all the personal injury compensation claims that are carried out in the UK are done so on a no win no fee basis. However most people do not fully understand what they are committing to when they become involved in a no win no fee claim. A no win no fee claim covers you from having to pay your legal costs it doesn’t mean that you will always be free of cost. A no win no fee claim means that you won’t have to pay your solicitor fees but you still may have to pay court fees and for the use of medical reports.
With Accident Consultant this is different. When you make a no win no fee claim through Accident Consultant you will be protected from all costs whether you win or lose because we will take out after-the-event insurance on your behalf, which will cover your opponent’s legal fees as well as both yours and your opponent’s costs. So if you win your compensation claim you will keep 100% of the compensation that you are awarded and your solicitor’s fees will be recovered from the losing side’s insurance company
The after-event-insurance that may be taken out on your behalf will cover your opponent’s legal costs and solicitor fees if you lose your claim. You do not have to pay for this insurance policy and if you win your claim the cost of the policy is recovered from the losing side’s insurance company and if you lose your claim the policy is designed to cover its self.
