The "No Win No Fee" agreement has revolutionized access to justice, allowing individuals to pursue legal claims without upfront costs. Under this arrangement, solicitors only charge fees if the case succeeds.
How No Win No Fee Works
A No Win No Fee agreement (also known as a Conditional Fee Agreement or CFA) means that if your case is unsuccessful, you won’t pay your solicitor’s fees. If you win, the losing party typically covers most legal costs, allowing you to keep 100 percent compensation in many cases.
Key Benefits:
✅ No Financial Risk – You don’t pay unless you win.
✅ Access to Justice – Even those with limited funds can pursue claims.
✅ 100% Compensation – Many solicitors ensure you receive the full settlement.
No Win No Fee Dispute Resolution
Disputes can arise over liability, compensation amounts, or legal fees. No Win No Fee dispute resolution helps resolve conflicts fairly without additional costs. Common disputes include:
Insurance company denials – Insurers may reject valid claims.
Settlement disagreements – The offered amount may be too low.
Legal fee disputes – Rarely, issues may arise over success fees.
Solicitors experienced in No Win No Fee cases negotiate or use mediation to resolve disputes efficiently, ensuring claimants receive fair treatment.
Ensuring 100% Compensation
Many firms guarantee that clients receive 100 percent compensation, meaning no deductions for legal fees. This is possible because:
The opponent covers legal costs.
Solicitors may waive their success fee (subject to terms).
Before signing a No Win No Fee agreement, always confirm whether you’ll receive the full compensation or if any deductions apply.
