No Win, No Fee Defective Product Claims Explained

We handle many personal injury claims on a No Win No Fee basis, also known as a Conditional Fee Agreement (CFA).

This means you pay nothing if your claim is unsuccessful. If your claim succeeds, your opponent will usually cover most of your legal costs, and a success fee will be deducted from your compensation.

We share the risk with you, meaning you only pay if your claim is successful. We will explain all funding options, your chances of success and how to maximise your compensation before you decide whether to proceed.

To discuss your options, arrange a free and confidential consultation with our solicitors by calling 0191 5666500. There is no obligation to make a claim, and our initial advice is free.
