No Win No Fee Injury Claims

If you have suffered a physical injury in an accident, which was not your fault, it’s possible that you are entitled to compensation by way of recompense.

Many accident helplines have a streamlined process to make the procedure as easy and simple as possible for you. Specially qualified and trained experts are at hand to help you and there are even schemes in place so that you do not have to fund your legal fees yourself.

As a general rule of thumb, if you are hurt as a result of an accident that was not your fault, it is best to have a no-obligation consultation on the phone with one of the accident helpline advisors to see if your claim might be successful. If you have a likely claim, then the matter would be passed to an expert solicitor to take matters further and negotiate on your behalf. They will advise you and deal with the paperwork for you. What sort of injuries qualify for this sort of personal injury compensation? There is no ‘one answer’ to this question, but there are areas of injuries that fall into certain categories as follows.

Accidents in the workplace are sadly all too common.

Some employees do not realise that they have a right to claim for appropriate compensation in many of these circumstances. Did you know that the law protects employees? Employers are under an obligation to give a duty of care to their employees and have certain legislative requirements that must be complied with, such as health and safety regulations, provision of appropriate equipment, training for the job and so on. If you are injured, you may be entitled to compensation.

On the road

Road traffic accidents are another big personal injury category. Whether you were in the vehicle as a driver or passenger or whether you were a pedestrian and not in the vehicle at all, you may be entitled to compensation if you are hurt.

Medical negligence is also an area of many claims.

Medical negligence solicitors will fight for compensation for those who have suffered in particular circumstances at the hands of doctors, nurses and others in the profession.

There is also a liability for accidents in ‘public places’.

Dodgy public pavements that cause a pedestrian to fall, wet floors in supermarkets that do likewise and dangerous dogs attacking innocent bystanders – all these instances and many more could result in claims for personal injury.

In terms of legal fees, it is worth checking if you are eligible for no win no fee injury claims. What does this mean? In no win no fee claims, you are not responsible for your lawyer’s fees if you lose the case. Conversely, if you win the case, it is likely that the other side will pay for your legal costs. In terms of the legal costs for injury claims no win no fee seeks to reduce the financial risk of the claimant.
