The big question!

If only things were far more simple like they used to be when we were able to offer no win, no fee agreements and practically all of our clients would receive 100% of their compensation claim. But thanks to some insane law changes back in April 2013 things are way more complicated now.

The charges can be vastly different from law firm to law firm, so how do we answer your question about what percentage do personal injury lawyers take?
