Funding a personal injury claim

Most persoanl injury claims are now funded either via a Conditional Fee Agreement (CFA), otherwise known as a "no win no fee" arrangement, or Legal Expenses Insurance.

For the vast majority of injury claims (with the exception of clinical negligence) public funding, formerly known as Legal Aid, is no longer available, however, funding a claim using a CFA or Legal Expenses Insurance does not usually involve any cost to you.

No win no fee - we offer a sincere no win no fee arrangement so that if you lose your case, you do not have to pay anything. We will make sure that you have insurance to cover you against the expenses of bringing the claim and the other party’s costs, where needed. If you win the case, you will receive your compensation in full as we will be paid our fees separately by the other party or their insurers.

Legal Expenses Insurance - you may already have the benefit of such insurance cover and are perhaps not aware of it. If you contact us, we will be able to advise you further on this by liaising with your usual insurers and/or Trade Union.

If you do not have Legal Expenses Insurance already, we can arrange it on your behalf and in the vast majority of cases, this will not cost you anything at all.

Unlike other firms and Claims Management Companies, we do not ask you to sign up to a Consumer Credit Agreement to fund the insurance loan or any of the expenses in pursuing the claim and you will not, therefore, face a hefty interest charge at the end of the matter.
