Can you act as no win no fee solicitors in Leicester?

We take most cases on a no win no fee basis so clients are able to claim with no financial stress. If we can do this for you and your claim is successful, any expenses not paid by the other side will come out of your compensation. You'll keep the majority and pay nothing upfront.

If your claim is unsuccessful, you should pay nothing at all. Your legal team can arrange a no-upfront-cost insurance policy on your behalf to ensure this is the case. This means you have no legal fees to worry about as long as you stick to the policy's terms and conditions.

Your assigned no win no fee lawyer serving Leicester will explain everything you need to know at the start, so you know exactly where you stand. Alternatively, use our online claim checker to find out if you're eligible in just a couple of minutes.

How much compensation could I receive?

Compensation can go some way to making up for what happened to you. It could, for example, make life easier if you've been forced to take time off work. However, every claim is different, so we need to find out more about your situation to give you a compensation estimate.

Rest assured your Leicester-serving accident lawyer will calculate an appropriate amount for your injury's impacts on you and your family, including:

  • Your injury type, severity and recovery time.
  • Current and future lost earnings.
  •  Medical treatment, expenses and ongoing care not available via the NHS.
  • Other necessary costs such as travel, accommodation and home or vehicle adaptations.

For a rough idea of what to expect, use our free and straightforward online compensation calculator. It works for all personal injury and accident claim types.

FAQ's

Is there a time limit for claiming?

It's important to know that you generally have three years from the date of your accident or from when you first became aware of its effects, for your claim to either settle or for court proceedings to start. Claiming sooner rather than later will mean your memory is fresh which makes it easier to gather recent, valuable evidence.

There are exceptions to this limitation period - such as if you're claiming on behalf of a child or someone who lacks mental capacity to manage their own case. If you're not sure where you stand, contact us to get connected to our partner accident claim solicitors serving Leicester and beyond as early as possible to avoid missing out on compensation.


Can your accident claim solicitors serving Leicester help me claim on behalf of someone else?

There are circumstances in which we could support you in making a claim on behalf of a loved one, for example:

  • Claiming as the parent or guardian of a child under the age of 18, making you what's known as a 'litigation friend'. You can start a claim for them at any time before they turn 18. Once they turn 18, they can pursue a claim themselves, which must either settle or have court proceedings started, prior to their 21st birthday.
  • Claiming for someone who lacks the mental capacity to pursue by themselves. This will be assessed on a case-by-case basis. There's no time limit in such cases unless they regain capacity. If they do, then the usual three-year limitation period begins and doesn't pause, even if they lose capacity again.
  • Claiming for someone who passed away as a representative of their estate. You'd need to claim within three years of the date of death, or from when it was discovered that their death was linked to an accident or illness caused by someone's negligence.

Will I need to go to court in Leicester?

Most of the time claims are settled outside of court, but when they can't be, it's likely that you'll be asked to attend a court local to you in Leicester. If you need to go to court, whether local or further afield, your assigned injury lawyer serving Leicester will keep you informed every step of the way and prepare you and lift as much of the burden during proceedings as possible.


Do I need to travel to meet my injury lawyer?

No. We have a network of legal experts working across the UK and handle our cases remotely. This means you don't need to worry about travelling across Leicester or the wider UK while you're busy recovering from the physical or mental impacts of your injury. Our friendly advisors are only a phone call away on .


How do I start a claim?

The first step is to contact our personal injury advisors for a consultation where you can tell them what's happened. They'll listen to your experience and tell you whether you could have grounds for a compensation claim. There is no pressure to continue.

If we think you could have a legitimate claim and you choose to go ahead, we'll introduce you to a trusted solicitor from our partner firms to discuss your case in more detail. They'll walk you through the claim process, answer your questions and let you know if they can handle your case on a no win no fee basis.

If you're still happy to proceed, your assigned Leicester-serving accident lawyer will gather evidence, prepare paperwork and negotiate with the responsible party on your behalf - leaving you to focus on your recovery.
