Personal Injury Compensation

No Win No fees acontingent fees (U.S.) or contingency fee (in England and Wales) where the lawyer is only paid if your application is accepted. Initially, when the case was won the lawyer would be paid by deducting a portion of the compensation by the applicant or when it would be a fixed fee shall be determined in advance.


On April 1, 2000, the Access to Justice Act 1999 (section 27) amended the Courts and Legal Services in 1990 to allow the lawyer's fee shall be deducted from the losing party.
To make it easy, if the lawyer you are working with No Win No works on a fee basis, you do not pay a penny if you win or lose you.


The advantage of no win no fee is that it guarantees the applicant that the lawyer would give full consideration to win the event since the service charge will only be paid to the losing party if the case is successful . On the other hand it could be argued that lawyers would not be true in the choice if you want to represent the applicant or not. Since the service charge is only paid if the case is won, the lawyer would probably not handle the personal injury claim compensation if the case does not seem favorable.


Many companies use right management companies to qualify a lead complaint before tackling the case. Debt management companies help applicants feed their cases by helping them acquire the necessary documents to a personal injury claim, provided that the company claims management has been able to help clients support their claim, they will pass the case to the law firm where a lawyer can handle it.


There are several injury compensation claims management companies, but it is important to ensure that the company is regulated by the Department of Justice. A management company called claims regulated by the Ministry of Justice will follow all rules and regulations to ensure they provide a sensitive and sincere service to all or who wish to create a claim.

Some companies entitled to the term "no win no fee" quite literally, where they charge you a service fee if you win the case, suggesting that what you have to pay either the lawyer or to deduct service fee in the amount of compensation. Make positive to discuss the no win no fee basis with your lawyer before proceeding your request.
