No Win, No Fee, youclaim.co.uk

No misrepresentation with our no win, no fee solicitors

There are rare cases in the UK of misrepresentation and impersonation that simply provide critics of no win, no fee solicitors with the material they need to put down the whole sector. This is, of course, wholly unfair to the honest and upstanding solicitors, such as those at YouClaim, who endeavour to be honest with their clients at all stages.

There is a cautionary tale in the 2008 case of a man who had represented several clients before legal clerks became suspicious and proved he was only impersonating a lawyer. The fantasist had told his clients that "I have the legal qualifications to run rings around them all," but was jailed for his attempts to pass himself off in this way.

Similarly, a woman who was indeed a personal injury solicitor was firmly censured in 2004 over her lack of openness regarding the reach of the no win, no fee agreement she had entered into with her clients. She had omitted to mention that the people she was representing under a conditional fee arrangement could be liable for opposition fees, court costs and other expenses caused by the claim.

It is important to remember that cases like these make the news because they are unusual. Nevertheless, the outcome for those few people affected by such misrepresentation is significant enough that it is very good advice to seek guarantees of professional standing and financial assurances before beginning a no win, no fee compensation claim.
