No Win No Fee Personal Injury
No Win No Fee Solicitors in Liverpool
Expert legal help with no upfront costs
What does “No Win No Fee” mean?
At Liverpool Legal, we understand that suffering an injury through no fault of your own can be financially, physically and emotionally challenging. That’s why our personal injury solicitors operate on a No Win No Fee basis. This means:
- If you win your claim, we will take our fees from your compensation (as permitted by law) – you will not pay anything upfront.
- If your claim is unsuccessful, you will not owe us fees for our work (subject to the terms of our agreement).
We will explain everything clearly and in plain English before you decide to proceed.
Why choose Liverpool Legal?
- We are a Liverpool-based, approachable firm, delivering expert legal advice with a personal touch.
- You’ll deal directly with an experienced solicitor who knows personal injury claims inside-out.
- We will assess your case promptly and advise on your prospects of success and likely timescales.
- We believe in transparency: you’ll know how much risk you’re taking, and there will be no hidden surprises when you reach a settlement.
- Our goal is to help you secure the maximum compensation possible, and to support you every step of the way.
Types of claims we handle on a No Win No Fee basis
We represent clients across a wide range of personal injury matters, for example:
- Road traffic accidents (drivers, passengers, pedestrians, motorcyclists)
- Accidents at work (industrial injuries, construction, manufacturing)
- Slips, trips and falls in public places or at premises you don’t own
- Medical or clinical negligence (where someone else’s care was below the required standard)
- Serious and catastrophic injuries where long-term support or rehabilitation is needed
If you were injured and it was caused by someone else’s negligence, we can help.
How the process works
- Free initial consultation – We’ll meet (or speak by phone/video) to understand what happened, consider your injury and discuss your options.
- Eligibility assessment & agreement – If we agree to act, we’ll provide a No Win No Fee agreement (also known as a Conditional Fee Agreement) that sets out your rights, our fees and your responsibilities.
- Investigation & claim build-up – We gather medical evidence, injury records, loss of earnings and other financial losses. We will also liaise with insurers or the responsible party.
- Negotiation or court – We seek to reach a settlement. If necessary, we’ll prepare and manage court proceedings.
- Settlement & fee deduction – If your case is successful, the defendant’s insurer will pay compensation. We deduct our agreed fee and any recoverable costs, leaving you with the net amount we strive to maximise.
- If the claim is unsuccessful – You don’t pay our legal fees. (Certain disbursements or insurance premiums may still apply - these will be clearly explained in advance.)
What will you pay us if you win?
Under UK law, if you win your claim, you may be charged a success fee, which is deducted from the compensation you receive for pain, suffering and loss of amenity. For example, many firms cap this fee at a maximum of 25% of your awarded compensation (inclusive of VAT).
We will always explain clearly:
- how the success fee is calculated
- any other costs you might owe (for example, if expense recovery conditions apply)
- your rights and options in full before you commit.
No financial risk to you
With our No Win No Fee service, you do not have to:
- pay any solicitor’s fees before your claim is resolved
- use your home insurance or borrow money to fund your case
- worry about “what if we lose?” - you do not pay for our work if we don’t win (subject to agreement terms)
Time limits and important considerations
- Generally, you must make your claim within three years from the date of the accident or from the date you became aware of the injury.
- If you were under 18 at the time of the accident, or lacked legal capacity, different rules may apply.
- A No Win No Fee agreement is a legal contract - we will walk you through it in full and ensure you understand your rights and responsibilities.
- If you hold legal expenses insurance (e.g., via your car or home policy) we will check if that can help fund your case.
What you should do next
- Contact us for a free, no-obligation chat. We’ll listen carefully to the details of what happened and tell you whether we believe you have a strong claim.
- If you choose to proceed, we’ll send you the agreement and get started right away.
- Meanwhile: keep records of your injury, medical treatment, expenses and any loss of income. These will help us support your claim.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I really pay nothing if I lose?
That’s right - you won’t pay our legal fees if your claim is unsuccessful (subject to the terms of the agreement).
What is a success fee?
It’s a capped percentage of your compensation that covers your solicitor’s costs if your claim is successful.
Can I change solicitors?
Yes. If you’re unhappy with your current solicitor, we can take over your case and handle the transfer process.
