How much do solicitors charge for accident claims?
Most personal injury solicitors in the UK, including us, operate on a No Win No Fee arrangement, normally taking a limited success fee of not more than 25% from your compensation amount, with other expenses such as the cost of medical reports or ATE insurance often being covered within the claim and made clear at the outset to comply with SRA requirements for transparency.
Can I claim back solicitors’ fees?
In the majority of personal injury claims, legal expenses are paid for by the unsuccessful party or are handled under No Win No Fee agreements, but success fees (up to 25%) and other non-recoverable charges are typically taken out of your settlement, so you usually can't recover them separately.
Can I change solicitors halfway through a claim?
Yes, you can change your personal injury solicitor halfway through your claim without penalty, provided that you instruct your new firm formally and settle any cost agreements with the previous one. It is quite common to change the solicitors after the claim if the claimant feels that the case is stuck and there is no progress.
Can I change solicitors during a personal injury claim?
Yes, you are allowed under the law to switch solicitors at any stage in your personal injury claim, generally by executing a letter of authority which enables your new solicitor to claim the case file, although your old solicitor might put a lien for costs which your new firm usually makes arrangements for, to settle any future compensation.
