No win, no fee compensation

Anyone who suffers a personal injury can make a claim for compensation using a no win, no fee lawyer.

It doesn’t matter how serious the injury is or even how it occurred – what counts is whether it is possible to show that someone else has been legally negligent. In other words, if someone else was responsible (wholly or in part) then you could have grounds for a personal injury compensation claim.

If you are thinking about making a claim using a no win, no fee lawyer then you should know that claims fall into several different categories:

Personal injury at work

Your employer has a duty of care to ensure you can do your job safely. Several laws exist to protect employees at work and if it can be shown that they have not been complied with and that this has led to a personal injury, you can claim for compensation. Employers are not allowed to dismiss you for making a claim.

General injuries:

You could be entitled to compensation If an injury was not your own fault. Your injury could have happened almost anywhere. The law says all public premises – supermarkets, gyms, schools etc - must be safe. Also local authorities are legally obliged to keep public areas safe from hazards.

Medical incompetence:

You can claim for compensation from professionals, such as doctors and dentists, when that care and advice is incompetent or below standard and leads to injury or a need for further treatment.
