Can a no-win, no-fee solicitor help me with my personal injury claim?

For example, in a straight forward road traffic accident where your car has been hit from behind by another car, the defendant (usually through their insurers) is unlikely to dispute liability.

However, in a more complex personal injury claim, for example for stress at work arising out of the potential negligence of the defendant, liability could be hotly disputed.

Whatever the personal injury claim, irrespective of its complexities, a solicitor will be able to help you to get the defendant to admit liability. They will be able to advise you on the legal and evidential strengths and weaknesses of your claim and draft a letter of claim to send to the defendant.

This is a formal ‘letter before action’ which you are required to send to the defendant before issuing court proceedings. The letter of claim should set out the legal and factual basis of the claim. It should also briefly set out the claimant’s losses in order to help the defendant, or their insurers or solicitors, get a broad value of the claim.

Hopefully, after you send a letter of claim to the defendant they will admit liability. If they admit liability, your solicitor can enter in negotiations with them with regard to settling the claim. If however, the defendant disputes liability then your solicitor will be able to advise you on the next steps. Depending on the strength of your claim, it may well be that the next steps would be to issue formal court proceedings. If this is the case, your solicitor will be able to prepare the formal documents that are required to be filed at court and served on the defendant.
