The now famous ‘no win no fee’ law was first introduced in 1995, as a replacement to the aging ‘legal aid’ system. Legal aid was a means for those who couldn’t afford legal representation to gain financial help from the government to enable them to pursue compensation. However, the problem with this was that it was only available to the very poorest in society, and it was also rapidly becoming a burden on the Treasury.
Since its origins some 15 years ago, this type of claim has revolutionised the field of personal injury claims. Many thousands of people who would have otherwise been prevented from pursuing legitimate claims have been able to win compensation in cases such as no win no fee car accidents and work related injuries. Today, these types of accident solicitors are widely available to those who need them, including Preston solicitors.
Using a no win no fee accident solicitor removes the financial risk of pursuing a claim for compensation and also ensures that if your claim is successful then you receive all the money that you are entitled to. By obtaining the services of this type of solicitor you can be sure that your case is being handled professionally so speak to solicitors Preston – no matter what the outcome is, you will not be personally liable for any costs.
