When considering whether to make a claim, one of the main questions people have is how much it will cost. Many people worry about whether or not they'd be able to afford to finance making a claim. 

This is why pursuing a case through YouClaim is a very attractive option. We are able to take personal injury cases on via a no win, no fee agreement, while medical negligence cases are still able to benefit from some funding (call us on 0800 10 757 95 to discuss the specifics of how medical negligence claims are funded). 

No win, no fee agreements were introduced as a replacement for the Legal Aid system. Also known as Conditional Fee Agreements, they give everyone in the UK, no matter what their finances, a chance to take legal action following a personal injury and they mean just that; if your claim is not successful, you won't be faced with paying any legal costs. It means that you can make a claim for the compensation you are entitled to without worrying about the money it might cost to finance your case.  

What no win, no fee means

At the beginning of a personal injury claim, the chances are that you will sign a no win, no fee agreement with your personal injury lawyer. What it will clearly highlight is that you won't pay any fees in the event your claim is not successful. 

Your lawyer will also explain the procedure for what happens if your claim is successful. At no point will you be asked to pay any up front costs to fund your claim; if you are required to pay any costs, they will be requested at the very end of your claim, once it has been successful and you are able to fund these costs with part of the compensation amount you have been awarded. At no time do we want to put you under financial pressure that would make you feel you are unable to continue with your claim. Our goal will always be to get you the best compensation we can.  

Your lawyer will advise that if you do not have legal expense insurance already in place (many people have this as part of their home or car insurance), you should take out an After the Event (ATE) insurance policy. This is something your lawyer can do on your behalf and once again, it safeguards you from costs in the event your case is not successful. 

By pursuing your personal injury claim with YouClaim, you really are entering into a risk-free claim process; there is no fee to pay if you lose, and if you win, you have the compensation you deserve for your injuries.
