    No win, no fee

    Interim payments

    Interim payments may be available in certain circumstances, our solicitors will always try to secure them where needed.

    No win no fee - no hidden costs

    A No Win No Fee Agreement, also known as a Conditional Fee Agreement, is an agreement that you make with your chosen solicitor whereby you don’t need to worry about paying upfront legal fees. If your claim is unsuccessful, there is no charge to you under this agreement. There are some rare exceptions to this, however if they apply to you, your chosen solicitor will let you know before your claim starts.

    So you will only pay a fee if you are awarded compensation – and there are no upfront costs.
