NO WIN - NO FEE: Why hire a personal injury solicitor?

If you have suffered personal injury due to an accident you may be entitled to compensation. A personal injury solicitor will help you to file your claim and help you ensure you win the maximum compensation to which you are entitled. But remember it is important you hire a solicitor willing to work with you on a 'no win, no fee' basis.

So what is a no win, no fee agreement? No win, no fee simply means that the solicitor will be paid only if he wins your case, i.e. if you receive the full amount for which you filed your personal injury claim. Further, according to a no win, no fee contract, the fees will be recovered from your opponent.

Here are the top five reasons why a no win, no fee agreement is best for your personal injury claim:

Reason 1: Free assessment - When you approach a solicitor to handle your case on a no win, no fee agreement, he will first assess the potential of your claim. Based on this, he will give you advice on whether you should go ahead with your claim.

Reason 2: Expert advice - A solicitor who agrees to take up your case on no win, no fee terms will guide you on the amount you should expect to claim as compensation. After all, his payment depends on whether you win the full amount claimed by you as compensation.

Reason 3: Competent representation - Only a competent solicitor will go along with handling your case on a no win, no fee terms. You can also be assured that he will make his best efforts to represent you and win your case. It's a no brainier: if he doesn't win for you he won't get paid.

Reason 4: Nothing to lose - According to the no win no fee agreement, if you win the case your opponent will pay the solicitor's fees. This way you lose nothing.
