No Win No Fee Lawyers

NO RISK and a Great Result!

If you have been injured you may need a personal injury lawyer to represent you and process your claim for compensation. Many personal injury lawyers can take your case on a no win no fee basis which basically means there are no up-front or ongoing costs to worry about. Any costs that relate to the processing of your claim such as disbursements are taken on by the lawyer.

At the end of your claim when you have received your compensation you will then be asked to pay legal fees and costs which usually amount to around 20% of your claim. 

The lawyers that we work with will take your case on a no win no fee basis. If for any reason they do not win your claim for compensation you do not have to pay a thing so it’s fairly simple ‘no win no fee’ means ‘no win no pay’.

You do need to be cautious when selecting a no win no fee lawyer. Some lawyers take cases on a no win no fee basis and this may not necessarily mean that you don’t have to pay anything if your claim is unsuccessful. Some lawyers may charge you for disbursements or other costs that relate to the processing of your claim and in our opinion this is not no win no fee and is very misleading for some people. If you decide to shop around for the right lawyer always ask for further details on what their no win no fee arrangement actually means.

In our experience no win no fee or no win no pay lawyers are much more likely to settle a compensation claim successfully as they will not be able to recover their costs or fees if they do not win your claim. These lawyers are risk takers but to be a risk taker they need to have absolute confidence that they will win your claim successfully and get the best possible result for you. This is reassuring with zero risk and a good result for you. For more information or advice on 'no win no fee arrangements' call our helpline on 1300 557 538.

You can rest assured that the team of injury lawyers we work offering no win no fee arrangements actually do mean it and because of this they will nearly always get positive results and have a high success rate.

Some injuries can leave you with a permanent impairment and you may be offered a lump sum payment. If this happens you must seek legal advice from a personal injury lawyer.  By calling our helpline 1300 557 538 you can speak with a lawyer who will give you free legal advice. The lawyer will either advise you to accept or reject the offer of a lump sum payment based on your entitlements. It is very important to get legal advice at this point. If you choose to accept the offer you may lose your future rights to any further claims for compensation. By signing you are ending your claim and potentially missing out on other compensation entitlements.

A claim can take 18 months or longer to process and this means that you may be tempted to take the offer but at the same time you may miss out on tens of thousands of dollars in compensation and this can greatly assist with living with your permanent injury.
