No win, no fee, also known as conditional fee arrangements (CFAs), became part of the legal framework in England and Wales with the passing of the 1999 Access to Justice Act. Previously claimants may have been asked by solicitors to make an upfront fee to set against the risk of losing the claim so they did not end up out of pocket.

By changing the way that fees are handled the 1999 Act made it possible for everyone to claim compensation if they were entitled to it rather than making it the privilege of those who could afford a court case. This means that if you can’t work because of your injury, benefits are not covering your expenses and you are feeling the financial pinch you can apply for compensation with no win, no fee.

Will I have to pay a fee if I win my claim? All of our firms of solicitors can handle your claim on a no win no fee basis, with no upfront fees or unexpected costs, and unlike many companies, we make sure that if your claim is unsuccessful for some reason you don’t pay a penny. Your solicitor simply doesn’t get paid – no win no fee. If your claim is successful, our specialist solicitors will work hard to ensure that you recover the maximum compensation.
