How
your claim will be funded - "NO WIN- NO FEE"
"No win-no
fee" (also called Conditional Fee Agreement (CFA)) has been the usual
way of funding a claim for compensation since the virtual removal of legal
aid for personal injury cases.
In simple terms our "no win-no fee" agreement means
that in general you do not have to pay the other sides costs if you lose your
case. To protect against the risk of paying the opponent's costs in such a
situation, we may purchase an insurance policy if appropriate.
If you win the case,
then in return for us taking the risk of running your case on this basis the
defendants pay us a success fee. Since April 2000 both the insurance premium
and the success fee are recoverable from the opponent if your claim succeeds.
There is an awful
lot of detail to no win no fee agreements that we will be happy to discuss at
the FREE initial consultation.
Other possible ways
to fund your claim include:
Legal expenses
insurance. This may already be built in to your motor or household insurance
policies. We will of course advise you fully on this.
