Questions and answers about the no win, no fee process
YouClaim are associated with a panel of highly skilled, expert no win, no fee solicitors who have helped those making accident at work claims, motorcycle accident claims, whiplash claims and car accident claims after being involved in accidents that weren't their fault.
If you have had a non-fault accident of any description then we are here to help you make a no win, no fee compensation claim. If you are unsure of how the no win, no fee agreement works then read on as we explain through our questions and answers provided by our customers and claim advisors.
If my case is successful will I have to pay any fees? (Anna from Lancashire)
No, you won't. No win, no fee quite literally means that you will not have to pay your personal injury solicitor's fees if your case is unsuccessful.
However, if your case is a success, which is more than likely seeing as YouClaim have an excellent claim success rate, you will not have to pay any fees when you make a claim through us. Read more about no win, no fee.
You will not have to fork out for costs or disbursements, such as paying for expert witnesses and medical reports, associated with your case either. Read more about disbursements.
In fact, you will not have to pay anything whether you win or lose your case because this is our policy and the business terms under which we operate.
The reason that you will not be responsible for paying anything at any time is simply because if you do not already have a legal expenses insurance policy your no win, no fee solicitor can take out an After the Event insurance policy on your request, completely free of charge. This will cover you against all legal costs and fee means that you will not face a big unfriendly bill when your compensation case is settled. Read more about legal expenses insurance.
Will I have a proportion of my compensation award deducted to go towards my solicitor's fees? (Lucy from Staffordshire)
No, most definitely not. As well as working on a strictly no win, no fee basis we also guarantee that all of our customers will gain every penny of their compensation awards, that’s 100% compensation.
We are aware that some personal injury claim firms will take a cut from their client's compensation. Some take as much as 40%, leaving their clients with little to show after their cases are settled.
However, YouClaim believe in the right for people who have suffered personal injuries through no fault of their own to claim compensation from the party responsible. We also believe that our customers should receive every single penny of compensation awarded to them as it is money which is meant to go towards rebuilding their lives.
But don't worry about us. Even though we won't ask you for a penny towards our fees we won't go empty handed. We will claim our success fee from the insurance company of the opposing party.
