No Win, No Fee Brain Injury Claims Explained
When a person has suffered a brain injury, the last thing you want to do is weigh up whether a Brain Injury Claim is a financial risk worth taking.
That’s why almost all of the clinical negligence cases we handle are funded on a ‘No Win No Fee’ basis, providing affordable access to justice for people when they need it most.
Often known as a Conditional Fee Agreement or CFA, a ‘No Win, No Fee’ agreement means you won’t have to pay a penny if you lose the case.
If you win, your opponent usually needs to cover most of your legal costs, but you will need to pay a success fee from the compensation. If your case is not successful, you won’t pay a penny.
In effect, we share the risk with you because we only get paid if you win the case, no matter how technically complex it becomes.
However, there are other ways to fund a case and all other methods will be explained, along with your chances of maximising the amount of compensation you receive, before you decide whether to pursue a claim.
