Medical Negligence No Win No FeeOur specialist solicitors deal with compensation claims for medical negligence using the no win no fee scheme. All of our lawyers are members of the Solicitors Regulation Authority panel of medical negligence experts for which less than 1% of UK solicitors qualify. SOLICITORS HELPLINE FREE ADVICE 0844 332 0124 Conditional Fee Agreement (CFA)The technical term for a medical negligence no win no fee arrangement is a “conditional fee agreement”. CFA litigation started in 1998 when legal aid funding ceased for most personal injury claims although legal aid is still available for medical negligence claims. The basis of a medical negligence no win no fee arrangement is that a lawyer is entitled to be paid legal fees only if the case is decided in their client’s favor. If the solicitor does not win the case, their legal fees must be written off and the client incurs no charges for the solicitor’s time. SOLICITORS HELPLINE FREE ADVICE 0844 332 0124 Legal AidLegal Aid is administered by the Legal Service Commission and is still available for medical negligence compensation claims however it is means tested. The only two groups of people who may qualify are children and some benefits claimants. SOLICITORS HELPLINE FREE ADVICE 0844 332 0124 Solicitors CostsWe normally insure all of our no win no fee medical negligence cases against loss. This means that if the claimant loses the lawsuit and is ordered to pay the defendants legal costs, there is nothing to actually pay by the claimant, as the legal fees incurred by the defendant will be settled by the claimant’s legal costs insurer. If you win your case, the opposing side will not only compensate you, but will also pay your legal team’s expenses including court fees, medical expert reports and solicitors legal fees.
