How Does No Win No Fee Work? Medical Negligence Claims

How Does No Win No Fee Work?

A no win, no fee agreement means you can pursue your claim with confidence, without worrying about upfront legal costs. You won’t pay any solicitor’s fees at the outset, and you pay nothing if your claim is not successful, so there is no financial risk to you.

If your claim does succeed, a pre-agreed fee will be deducted from your compensation. This approach ensures you can access clear, expert legal advice and support when you need it most.

For Lydia Barnett, Partner:

“After undergoing surgery I was left infertile. I had my initial consultation with Lydia in which she made me feel completely at ease. She understood the physical and psychological implications of my claim. These types of claims can take a long time and I was concerned it would have a big impact on my life. Lydia has always been professional, honest and thoughtful and contacted me only when required. She always got back to me quickly when I have had questions. I cannot recommend Lydia and Coles Miller enough.”

For Lydia Barnett, Partner:

“During November 2018, I tripped and fractured my elbow. During my surgery, errors were made resulting in my inability to work due to nerve damage and excruciating pain. I approached Coles Miller following research into local legal experts and they agreed to take on my case on a no win, no fee basis. Lydia Barnett, a Partner at Coles Miller took charge of my case and ably assisted by Genee Clarke worked tirelessly to achieve an amazing result for me. I found Lydia to be extremely professional, knowledgeable, friendly and highly approachable. She kept me fully updated throughout the duration of my case. I wouldn’t want to go through the process again, but if I had to I wouldn’t hesitate to contact Lydia.”
