Costs
Firstly, we provide you with an initial free half hour interview.
The following funding options are then open to you:
1. Conditional Fee Agreement
- WE CHARGE YOU NOTHING WIN OR LOSE.
- If we take your case on you will not be asked to pay us anything at all. No
hidden extras. You will receive your compensation intact.
- If however you mislead or are uncooperative we reserve the right to
terminate the agreement and demand payment of costs accrued at that point.
- Prior to entering into a conditional fee agreement, it is important that
you check to see whether or not any insurance policy you may have includes
a legal expenses indemnity clause.
- To protect you against the possibility of losing and thereby paying the
other side's costs, we can arrange insurance for you at no cost to you. At
the end of your case if you are successful a maximum of £400.00 would then
be deducted from your damages if you took out such insurance. Usually the
amount deducted would be around £160.00.
2. Legal Expenses Insurance
3. Private Paying
