The Basics

For many people, the worry is not only finding a solicitor nearby, but understanding what “no win no fee” would actually mean before anything is signed. The main points to check are what fee may be deducted if the claim succeeds, whether other costs such as reports or insurance are mentioned, what happens if the claim does not succeed, and whether the arrangement is suitable for the type of claim being discussed.

Understanding Conditional Fee Agreements

“No Win No Fee” usually refers to a Conditional Fee Agreement, but it is not one standard product. The written agreement should explain which work is covered, what counts as success, what may be deducted from compensation, and whether VAT, insurance premiums, expert fees or other expenses are separate. Terms vary by firm, claim type and individual circumstances.

Questions to ask about fees

• What will I pay if the claim succeeds, and how will the fee or percentage be calculated?
• Are VAT, insurance premiums, medical reports, court fees or other expenses charged separately?
• What could I pay if the claim is unsuccessful or if I end the agreement early?
• Can the solicitor provide a written worked example showing likely deductions and what I would receive?
• Does the agreement cover the whole matter, or only particular stages or types of work?

Ask for the complete funding terms in writing before agreeing to proceed. The Solicitors Regulation Authority’s No Win No Fee guidance explains further questions consumers can ask.
