Serious Injury Claims Solicitors - No Win No Fee Claims

No Win No Fee: The law limits our success fee to 25% of the compensation for pain, suffering and loss of amenity and for past financial losses, after any state benefits are repaid. Compensation for future losses is not counted. If you win, our success fee is deducted from your compensation. It is a percentage of our basic charges, and the law limits it as set out above. Any After the Event insurance premium is payable only if you win, and is never charged upfront. Your letter of engagement sets out exactly what you will pay for your type of claim, and we explain it before you sign. If you lose, you pay us nothing. This applies as long as you keep to your responsibilities under the agreement. You may have to pay costs if you end your claim early, fail to beat an offer the other side made, or a court finds your claim dishonest or exaggerated; where we have arranged After the Event insurance, it covers some of these costs if you keep to the policy's terms. See exactly what you pay.

Serious Injury Compensation – What You Can Claim

Serious injury compensation reflects the long-term physical, psychological, and financial consequences of your accident. High-value claims often include extensive medical needs and significant future losses.

General Damages for Pain, Suffering and Loss of Amenity

General damages compensate for pain, reduced mobility, psychological trauma, and loss of independence. The amount reflects injury severity and long-term prognosis.

Special Damages and Future Financial Losses

Special damages cover measurable losses such as treatment, medication, lost earnings, and care. Future losses can be substantial when mobility, employment, or independence is permanently affected.

Rehabilitation, Treatment and Medical Support

Compensation can fund physiotherapy, psychological therapy, occupational therapy, and long-term medical support. Interim payments may cover early rehabilitation while the claim is ongoing.

Care, Assistance and Case Management

Claims include the cost of professional carers, family support, and long-term case management. Serious injuries often require structured daily assistance and coordinated therapy.

Equipment, Mobility and Adaptations

Compensation can cover mobility aids, prosthetics, wheelchairs, vehicle adaptations, and home modifications. Larger claims include lifetime replacement cycles for specialist equipment.

Housing and Accommodation Needs

If your home is no longer suitable, compensation can fund alternative accommodation or adaptations such as wider doorways, accessible bathrooms, ramps, or single-level living.
