About No Win No Fee Personal Injury Claims
No Win No Fee came to the UK in 1998 when Legal Aid was withdrawn. It was replaced by the conditional fee scheme.
A conditional fee scheme means that the solicitor is only entitled to be paid his legal fee if he wins the case. The solicitor’s payment is made by the losers or their insurance company and does not come out of any award of compensation.

A victim of personal injury does not have to pay for an insurance policy, medical reports, medical records or court fees, Accident Advice Helpline’s special scheme ensures that all expenses are covered on your behalf without any exception.
Accident Advice Helpline’s scheme ensures that there are no hidden deductions and our no win no fee scheme is guaranteed risk free.
In the event that a no win no fee case is lost, the solicitor will be unable to claim his fees from either the third party or his own client and must effectively write them off. This provides solicitors with an excellent incentive to win the case.
Compensation can be claimed for ‘General Damages’, which can be difficult to calculate. They include ‘pain and suffering’ (for both the initial injury and for any continuing suffering or disability) and ‘loss of amenity’ which is loss of the enjoyment of life.
For example if you can no longer partake in a leisure activity due to your injury.

Compensation may also be awarded for loss of earnings caused by permanent injury. Future losses are also included in accident claims calculated according to the estimated annual loss to arrive at a fair figure for compensation.
In addition ‘Special Damages’ can be claimed, these include items that are usually easier to calculate accurately;
• Loss of earnings whilst injured
• Prescription charges and medical costs
• Property damage
• Insurance excess
• Damage to Vehicle
• Special care aids and equipment
• Adapted transport
• Car hire
• Travel expenses
• Cost of assistance
• Costs of care
• Adapted accommodation
