Funding

We are under a professional duty to ensure you receive full and frank advice about your funding options. By funding, we mean on what basis you retain your legal advisors. This does not necessarily mean you have to pay anything.
We do understand that you will be concerned about the costs involved in making a claim – you will probably have seen the adverts on TV, but probably don’t expect it to be as easy as it sounds and wonder what hidden costs there may be. You may also have been told that you must use the solicitor provided for you by your insurer.
Our advice to you? Speak to us first!

Your options are:

Conditional Fee Agreement (No Win No Fee) - with insurance to protect your interests.

Legal Expenses Insurance – your insurer may offer to fund your claim for you, they won’t always let you choose your own solicitor though, they sometimes provide a solicitor based hundreds of miles away so it may not be the best option for you.

Legal Aid – is not available for most types of personal injury claims.
