The no-win, no-fee personal injury claim market generally deals with personal injuries that are caused by accidents that are the direct result of someone’s negligence. Some lawyers may take on a case of unfair dismissal for instance on a no-win, no-fee basis, but generally speaking; this area of law is designed for accident claims at home and in the workplace, road accidents, and medical negligence injuries.
The type of personal injury you have suffered can influence the type of solicitor you use to help with your case. A no-win, no-fee personal injury claim for a road accident for instance can be handled by all personal injury solicitors. However, if you want to make a claim for medical negligence, solicitors exist that have special training to help them manage these claims for compensation.
The Solicitors’ Regulation Authority (SRA) regulates all solicitors that offer their services on a no-win, no-fee basis. No-win, no-fee personal injury claim lawyers must all work within a Code of Conduct that the SRA has laid down. One of the most important aspects of the Code is that solicitors must give you details of the costs that your claim might attract. If your solicitor fails to do this, you have the right to make a complaint to the Legal Complaints Service.
If your no-win, no-fee personal injury claim is for medical negligence it is vital to obtain the services of a solicitor with experience of this branch of the law. The success of your no-win, no-fee personal injury claim will depend on how much information you can provide to support your case.
