Whilst most no win, no fee agreements are individual to the firm of lawyers, and can therefore have varying terms and conditions, the principles of the agreement can be standard. So, if you are wondering what a no win, no fee agreement really entails and you would like a general overview on it, please read on for advice.

This is but general guidance though as the agreements will normally have their own clauses and terms, so this is just a very brief reference guide for you.

If we think we can win a claim, we might be able to offer you a no win, no fee agreement. The principle of this means that, if the claim doesn’t win, we do not charge you any fees we have incurred.

This allows people to make a claim with the safety of not having to pay a huge legal bill if it doesn’t win. After all, we cannot accurately predict from the outset whether a claim will win or not in many cases. So how does it actually work?

Compensation is based upon the severity of your injuries and how long the injuries will affect your everyday life. As such, there is not really such a thing as a “standard” payout for any particular injury as everyone can be affected differently.

In law the defendant has to take the claimant as they find them – for example if your injury is an exacerbation of an existing injury this doesn’t mean you don’t have the right to claim as, of-course, if it wasn’t for the injury, your condition would not have been aggravated!

So how is a payout assessed? Well, put simply a payout is always assessed on the particular facts of each individual case. There is no such thing as one payout for this injury and another for something else – each case will have its own individual payout.

There are so many websites out there to browse through when it comes to deciding who you want to represent you for your claim for compensation.

The bad news is that a load of them are NOT actually lawyers; they are just Claims Management Companies and Accident Advice Services that often like to appear as if they’re lawyers to draw you in.

If you have been injured in an accident which was not your fault, it is likely that you have a potential claim for compensation for your injuries. It is important to note that it’s not just your injuries you can receive compensation for.

If you have suffered any other form of loss directly resulting from your injuries, your injury lawyer can make a claim for these losses as well. So, what losses am I talking about? By losses, I mean things like a loss of earnings claim, care and assistance you required and had to pay for whilst you were injured, travel costs for when you attended appointments, and medication costs.  Here’s an example…
