For most actors, the world of big money productions and A-list premieres is a distant dream. Some will go through years of intensive dramatic training only to find work impossible to come by, while others will find that work is intermittent, leading to an uncertain cycle of "feast and famine". The potential for injury is another of the less glamorous aspects of the acting profession, with many no win, no fee claims for acting-related injuries made every year.
However, these claims are often not straightforward. A solicitor with law firm Howard Kennedy comments, "Actors' claims are notoriously difficult to pursue, particularly when they are employed on a temporary contract. Where performers are members of a trade union, they may have legal assistance to enable them to pursue claims for personal injury. However, many performers do not have the benefit of union support or may sustain injury in circumstances outside the workplace."
Fortunately, for those actors who are not backed by a union such as Equity there is always the possibility of making a no win, no fee claim. These contingency fee arrangements are perfectly suited to actors, who know all too well the financial perils of "feast and famine", as they allow them to make claims without risk of financial peril.
And it is not only actors who benefit from this form of personal injury representation. Others in the theatre and film professions, such as stagehands, stage managers, set and prop builders and sound technicians, will also benefit from a service that allows them to claim for their injuries without the risk of falling into debt.
