If you instruct The Injury Lawyers to deal with your claim for compensation we guarantee that you will receive 100% of your compensation – not a penny less! We do not charge our legal services to our clients, making it a free of charge service for our clients; this is why you get to keep 100% of any compensatory award you receive. So how come we provide our services for at no costs to our clients? Simple – if we win your case we are able to recover our costs from the other side. So, we get our work paid for by the Defendant, which includes any other costs, such as medical reports and court fees, all paid for by the other side. We operate on what we have uniquely defined as a ‘genuine no win, no fee agreement’.
That is, our Conditional Fee Agreement (the technical name for our No Win No Fee contract with you) explicitly states that we cannot attempt to recover any of our costs from you if we fail to recover them from the other side. There is simply only one circumstance where we would seek to recover ours costs from you; that is, if a few months or maybe years down the line you decided you no longer wanted to go ahead with your claim. We feel this is fair, as I am sure you would agree, because after all in those circumstances we would have done considerable work for you. We really do have a genuine no win, no fee agreement with all of our clients. Most law firms operate the same policy – but not all law firms will restrict their fees to whatever they recover like we do.
Most other law firms only state in their agreement with you that they will seek to recover their costs from the other side – which in reality means that, yes, they will try and get their costs from the other side so as not to charge you, but, should they not recover all of these costs, they could in fact look to you to pay the outstanding balance. For The Injury Lawyers this is unpalatable. We acknowledge that your compensation is just that: it is YOUR compensation. We therefore believe that you should keep all of it. If we were to take some of it away, this would under compensate you. You are awarded compensation to put yourself back in the position you would have been in had your accident not have occurred. If we then take some of your compensation to pay for our services, then this is to serve so as not to put you back in the position you would have been in had the accident not have occurred. The Injury Lawyers therefore state in their agreement with their clients that they CANNOT recover their fees from you.
There are absolutely no catches with The Injury Lawyers genuine no win, no fee agreement. We are open about the fact that we would ask that you repay our costs should you decide to abandon your claim. This doesn’t really happen and is the only circumstance in which we would ask you for money. Other than that all of the maximum compensation we achieve for you is yours. 100%.
