The truth about 'no win, no fee'
Q11 If my claim is successful, who will actually pay me? Will I get to keep all the compensation?
Quite simply, the individual person, business, organisation or institution that you are claiming against will pay through their own insurance cover. In the case of medical negligence, this is likely to be the NHS, except where the medical care was offered privately, in which case it will be paid by the private medical company’s insurers.
‘Once a compensation payment is made to you, it should be yours and yours alone’
Once a compensation payment is made to you, it should be yours and yours alone and you will have no obligations, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise, to give up any part of it.
If you want to ensure you do indeed keep all your compensation award, make sure you deal with a personal injury claims specialist who meets the ClaimsGuide recommended criteria.
In nearly all cases your award for compensation will be paid by the defendant’s insurance company directly to your solicitor who will then pass it on to you. No deductions to which you have not previously agreed should be made from your compensation
