How long will it take to get my compensation?
Hopefully your claim will be resolved within a matter of months. Sometimes it can take longer if your opponent denies fault for your accident, or they do not offer you enough compensation. In these circumstances, we may have to take your case to court. We will give you appropriate advice on timelines as and when they become clear to us so.
How much will I get?
This will depend on your injury. Click here for examples of past awards. You may also wish to refer to the Judicial Studies Board Guidelines, which provide a general assessment of the quantum of damages payable in various types of personal injury claims. Compensation in employment law cases is more difficult to estimate as it is dependent on factors such as your wages and the particularities of your situation.

As your lawyers, we can help by assessing your specific case and providing you with estimates.
How does the No Win No Fee agreement work?
If you win your case, there is a good chance the court will make an order for costs requiring your opponent to pay your costs. In such a situation, your opponent pays your legal costs and you pay nothing. If you lose your case, we agree to charge you nothing more. We understand that high legal fees are extremely prohibitive and often deter would-be claimants who have a strong case. Therefore, we are making an offer to absorb your risk of being saddled with payment of legal fees in the event of an unsuccessful claim.
How much will this cost me?
If one of our experts decides that you have a valid claim, we will offer you a No Win No Fee agreement, meaning you won’t pay a penny if your claim is unsuccessful. If you succeed in obtaining a settlement or making a claim, there is a high chance your opponent will be obliged to pay your legal costs. This is a win-win situation for you as far as legal costs are concerned because you will not find yourself in a situation where you are forced to pay legal costs for an unsuccessful claim.
