Making A No Win No Fee Claim

Beacon Law, No Win, No Fee personal injury Solicitors, Wakefield offer our services on a No Win, No Fee basis. A No Win, No Fee Agreement is used to fund a compensation case where the accident victim does not have the means, or does not wish to pay upfront the costs involved as the case progresses.

If we believe that your case has a good chance of success, we will usually agree to proceed with your claim under a ‘No Win, No Fee’ Agreement. One of the essential features of a ‘No Win No Fee’ Agreement is that you will not be liable to this firm for our fees if you do not succeed in your claim.

 A Conditional Fee Agreement (CFA) is a required document that needs to be signed before starting your ‘No Win, No Fee’ Agreement. This document states that you agree to pay our fees, but only if your claim is successful.

Our Fees If Your Claim Is Successful

The main benefit of making a No Win No Fee compensation claim is that the financial risks of litigation are reduced. If your claim is successful, you will be required to pay our success fee. This will be calculated as a percentage of your final compensation amount and deducted at the end of your case. If you win your case, you may also be required to pay a sum for After The Event (ATE) Insurance.

Legal Expenses Insurance

Throughout the litigation process, costs and fees will always be incurred. Costs such as, court fees, expert fees, and costs of obtaining medical records may need to be paid. Although you may not be required to pay our fees if you lose your claim, you may be held personally responsible for payments of your opponent’s costs and expenses. By taking out a legal expenses insurance policy, you will ensure that you are not personally liable for these costs.

There are two types of Legal Expenses Insurance; Before the Event (BTE) Insurance and After the Event (ATE) Insurance. Most personal injury claims can be covered by After the Event Insurance if your claim is unsuccessful.

You will only have to pay the costs of After the Event Insurance if your claim is successful. If your claim is unsuccessful, your fee will be waived.

Circumstances When You May Be Required To Pay Our Fees

There is a very small chance of this happening, but there are some circumstances where you may be held responsible for ours and our Defendant’s fees and costs. For example:

• In the unlikely event that you should wish to end the ‘No Win, No Fee’ Agreement before the settlement of your case, you will have an obligation to pay our necessary costs unless you agree to wait for the outcome of your claim.
• If you are found to be dishonest at any point throughout the process of your claim. This can include providing any information regarding the claim you know to be untrue and can consist of exaggerating injuries, providing false or inaccurate information about the details of the accident, or failing to inform us of any data, such as previous accidents or injuries.
• You may also be responsible for some of our fees if you win. This situation may arise if we cannot recover all of our costs from the opponent. However, in the event of a successful outcome, we would hope you will recover most if not all of our costs from your opponent.
• If you fail to provide us with instructions within a specific time limit or fail to co-operate with us in any way, we will hold you to be in breach of the ‘No Win, No Fee’ agreement.
