When you’re facing a legal claim after an injury or dispute, the cost of justice can feel like another hurdle. That’s why choosing a No Win No Fee solicitor can be a game changer. At Berwicks Solicitors, we believe everyone deserves access to quality legal representation — without the financial risk.
1. What is a No Win No Fee Agreement?
A “No Win No Fee” arrangement (also known as a Conditional Fee Agreement) means that you don’t pay legal fees unless your claim succeeds. If we don’t win for you, you pay nothing. This levels the playing field — especially for those who might otherwise hesitate to pursue a claim due to cost concerns.
2. Risk is Reduced — Your Focus Stays on Recovery
When you’re dealing with medical treatment, loss of income, or emotional stress, you need to concentrate on recovery — not legal bills. A No Win No Fee arrangement gives you peace of mind, knowing you won’t be saddled with legal debt if your case doesn’t succeed.
3. Quality Representation, Same Commitment
Some worry that No Win No Fee means lower-quality service. That’s not the case at Berwicks Solicitors. We put the same level of care, professionalism, and attention into every case — whether or not it’s contingency-based. Your success is our success.
4. When It’s Most Commonly Used
We most often apply No Win No Fee in these areas:
- Personal injury claims
- Housing disrepair disputes
- Accidents at work
- Road traffic and car accident claims
If your claim falls outside these areas, we’ll be transparent from the start about fee structures before proceeding.
5. What You Should Confirm with Any Solicitor
Before signing up, make sure your solicitor:
- Gives a clear written agreement
- Shows exactly what “success” means (e.g. settlement or court award)
- Explains deductions (if any) from your settlement
- Confirms you won’t be liable for costs if the case fails
At Berwicks Solicitors, we’ll walk you through each detail — no jargon, no surprises.
6. Why We Offer It
Over our 15 years in the Heart of Yorkshire, we’ve seen countless clients held back from seeking justice because they worried about legal costs. Offering No Win No Fee is our way of making justice fairer. You shouldn’t have to be wealthy to enforce your rights.
