Funding For My Negligence Claim Against a Professional

No Win, No Fee funding for your professional negligence claim and other options

It’s important in any professional negligence claim to consider the issue of funding your legal costs at the outset. We offer a range of funding options, including our popular No Win, No Fee funding scheme.

No Win, No Fee funding

Our No Win, No Fee funding scheme is particularly popular and substantially reduces your financial risks when making a professional negligence claim. No Win, No Fee professional negligence claim funding usually takes the form of a Conditional Fee Agreement, known as a CFA.

For No Win, No Fee funding to be commercially viable the legal merits of the case must be very good. Furthermore the value of the claim must be substantial and ideally in excess of £25,000. This is because only very limited legal costs can usually be recovered in cases below that threshold.

Private funding

Where No Win, No Fee funding isn’t suitable some people opt to pay on a private basis. We are always happy to discuss this option and provide you with a budget. We can also set an initial fee limit when investigating a case at the outset.

Help for litigants in person

We are able to help litigants in person on an ad hoc basis. So rather than retaining us to deal with every aspect of your case from start to finish, you can call upon us to assist with specific issues and therefore limit the legal costs you incur.

Legal Expenses Insurance

We can check whether you have the benefit of a legal expenses policy that might cover your claim. These policies are often included with other insurance products and we frequently find that people are unaware that they have cover. If you give us details we will be happy to liaise with your insurers and tell you if your legal costs are covered.

When we deal with a case on a No Win, No Fee basis we can usually arrange for ‘after the event’ legal expenses insurance to cover you for being ordered to pay your opponent’s legal costs. The insurance premium is paid at the end of the case and only if you win. However legal expenses insurance can be very expensive, so you need to factor that cost into your budget when considering whether the claim is economically viable.
