No Win No Fee is a new and widely understood term within the legal sector. It is also commonly understood by member of the general public. Prior to the introduction of the system in the UK, an injured person wishing to claim compensation from a negligent party would either have to fund the legal expenses of the claim himself hoping to recover them from third party, or to apply for Legal Aid funded by the government.
In 1998 however the Government Legal Aid Scheme was withdrawn for personal injury and claims were allowed to be dealt with on a No Win No Fee basis. This means that a solicitor working on this basis will only charge his professional fees in the event of the case being won when the fees would usually be paid by the third party as part of the claim.
Whilst some solicitors or claims management companies may deduct a proportion of the compensation figure, Excalibur Solicitors does not operate in this way and will not deduct any money from your compensation even if we win the case. We will only charge costs that we are able to recover from the other party at the end of the case.
