Injury claim solicitors

Have you suffered an accident that wasn't your fault? 

Are you unsure as to what your claiming rights are? 

Some companies can provide the support to get you the compensation you deserve on a no win no fee basis.

Those companies  specialise in personal injury claims involving motorcycle & car accident claims, as well as injuries & accidents at work or in public places. They can even help people make personal injury claims for their work or workplace having caused an illness or industrial disease – so you'll always have a trusted name to turn to when it comes to personal injury claims.

The solicitors will always strive to obtain the maximum amount of compensation for your personal injury and, as they operate on a no win no fee basis you will always keep 100% of your compensation.  It is not possible to say exactly how much compensation you will be awarded as each case is unique and depends on your injury and your personal circumstances.  To give you an idea though:

• average compensation for a road traffic accident, £8607 (based on 3022 recent road traffic accident cases)
• average compensation for an accident at work case, £6690 (based on 837 recent accident at work cases)

Victims of more serious accidents regularly need time off work to recover from their personal injury, leading to financial problems such as struggling to keep up with mortgage repayments. In fact, many people return to work too early due to these problems, often making their injury worse. That is why it is important that accident victims make an accident claim and are awarded the compensation they deserve - to give them the time needed to make a full recovery.

Accident claims should be successful if it can be shown that someone has been at fault in some way - that they have failed in a duty or not taken reasonable care - and that this fault or failure caused (or partly caused) the accident. This may be quite obvious in some cases, but in others it can be quite complicated.

An example of a responsible party neglecting their duty of care would be a supermarket employee mopping a spillage on the floor but not displaying wet floor signs, resulting in a customer slipping and injuring themselves in the process. In this example, the customer would be entitled to make an accident claim as their injury could have been prevented by the supermarket.

No win no fee personal injury

A no win no fee personal injury claim is a type of legal claim, such as a civil claim, taken by an expert lawyer representing you. 


This type of legal claim is referred to as “No win no fee” because the attorney will waive basic legal fees unless the you he represents is awarded money in the case. 


Once money is awarded, then the attorney will typically take a certain amount of money (percentage) as for a fee. A No win no fee personal injury claim is risky proposition for an attorney, and a lawyer will usually only accept a case he or she believes has merit.

A no win no fee personal injury claim is often beneficial for someone who may not have the money to pay a lawyer prior to awarding of money from a personal injury case. Since a lawyer working on this type of case will not effectively make any money unless the case is won, lawyers are very careful about what cases they accept on contingency. There are also a few things a plaintiff should consider with regard to a no win no fee personal injury claim.

While any lawyer fees are waived until compensation is awarded in a no win no fee personal injury claim, secondary costs may still be charged to a client regardless of whether a case is won or lost. These charges can include fees for making copies, mailing paperwork, interviewing witnesses, and basic court costs. A plaintiff should be aware of these costs throughout a case, and some lawyers will accept help from a plaintiff to perform these tasks, rather than charging to do them. 

The percentage that a lawyer will take from a no win no fee personal injury claim can vary widely; it may be as low as 25% of awarded money if the case is settled prior to pre-trial discovery, though if the case is won after going to court the fee can be closer to 35%.
