In truth no win no fee solicitors have only been around for the last few decades, but the concept has caught on in a big way in the legal industry and many compensation lawyers now offer this type of service to the public.

When you wish to make a claim for compensation and visit your solicitor they begin the process by sending a letter to the defendant alerting them to your intention to make a claim. They will then await a response from the defendant’s lawyer and begin to calculate the amount of compensation you are entitled to. If you are claiming compensation for personal injury then you will have to provide medical evidence of your injury and have the gravity of it assessed. In every compensation case you will need to have proof of the claim.
