Claims<\/h1>\n

How it works<\/h2><\/a>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
\n

We know that making a claim can feel daunting. We’re here to help with that. When you submit your details, you’ll be in safe hands. Our partners are National Accident Helpline (a brand of National Accident Law, a firm of personal injury solicitors regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority). They are the UK’s leading personal injury service. Their friendly legal services advisers will call you to talk about your claim and give you free, no-obligation advice. National Accident Law may pay us a marketing fee for our services.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

If you win your case, your solicitor’s success fee will be taken from the compensation you are awarded – up to a maximum of 25%. Your solicitor will discuss any fees before starting your case. Your solicitor may arrange for insurance to be in place for you to make sure your claim is risk free. Termination fees based on time spent may apply, or in situations such as: lack of cooperation or deliberately misleading our solicitors, or failing to go to any medical or expert examination, or court hearing.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n

Most injury lawyers work on a no win no fee basis, meaning there is no financial risk to starting your personal injury claim. Your lawyer will usually arrange ATE insurance<\/a> for you to ensure your claim is risk free. If successful, your lawyer’s legal fees will be taken as a percentage of the compensation you receive – in most cases, up to 25%.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Termination fees may apply based on time spent on your claim, or if your case does not proceed because you do not cooperate fully with your solicitor by, for example, deliberately misleading your solicitor, failing to attend a court hearing, or not going to a medical\/expert examination.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

All advice is provided with no obligation to use the solicitor’s services.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n
