UK NO WIN NO FEE SOLICITORS - COMPENSATION CLAIMS
The no win, no fee arrangement, also known as a “conditional fee” agreement (CFA), was first enacted in 1998 in an attempt to remove central government funded legal aid from the field of personal injury law (excluding medical negligence compensation claims). The scheme operates by passing the risk of losing cases onto the lawyer. If the claim is lost the no win no fee solicitor cannot claim any legal fees from anyone. He cannot bill the other side; he cannot charge his own client and as a result he just has to write off his time and effort. If the case is won, the solicitor claims his costs from the other side and does not charge his own client.

Conditional Fee Agreement
Some things should be considered in relation to a CFA. While some no win no fee solicitors will pay for all expenses accrued during the course of a case, such as medical reports and testing, charges and fees for records or other costs, other solicitors expect their clients to pay for any extraneous fees and only consider their actual legal work to be done on a no win no fee basis. There are also solicitors who will arrange a loan, in the client’s name, to cover all of the case’s costs, and if the case is lost, the client is still responsible for the loan.
