No Win, No Fee
No win, no fee means that you won’t pay any legal fees if your claim is unsuccessful.
If your case is successful, your solicitor’s fees will be deducted from your compensation at a pre-agreed percentage, so there are no hidden costs or surprises. It’s a practical and risk-free route to seeking the compensation you deserve, especially in the wake of a personal injury that may already have affected your income or daily life.
Whether you’ve been injured at work, in a public place, on the road, or due to someone’s negligence, our experienced no win, no fee solicitors are here to help you every step of the way. If you’re unsure whether you have a valid claim or simply want to understand your options, we offer free initial advice and will assess your case without obligation.
Frequently Asked Questions
In simple terms, ‘no win, no fee' means if your case doesn’t succeed, you won’t be required to pay your solicitor’s legal fees. If your claim is successful, your solicitor will recover their costs by taking a pre-agreed percentage of your compensation known as a success fee.
In most cases, no. With a no win, no fee agreement, you typically won’t pay anything upfront. However, some third-party costs, such as medical reports or court fees may arise. These are often covered by legal expenses insurance (ATE), which your solicitor may arrange. All costs will be explained clearly before your claim begins, so there will be no surprises.
In most cases, yes. However, you may still be liable for some costs such as court fees, expert witness fees, or the other side's legal costs in very limited circumstances.
After the Event Insurance (ATE), protects you from paying costs, such as the other party’s legal fees or court costs if your personal injury claim is unsuccessful. It is often arranged alongside a no win, no fee agreement, giving you peace of mind. ATE insurance premiums are only paid if you win and are usually deducted from your compensation, ensuring minimal financial risk as you pursue your claim.
A success fee is the portion of your compensation that your solicitor keeps if your case is won, as their reward for taking on the risk of your claim. This can vary, but usually up to 25% of your compensation is taken as a success fee. At Howard & Over, we will always confirm the fee with you upfront.
