We receive many requests each day, some really obscure, as I write this article my inbox is filling up with many such cases.

Obviously if you have had an accident and you have been personally injured and it was not your fault then your case is a lot easier to prove.  However if you believe you have a case that doesn’t involve any injury then it’s important to consider the nature of the case in determining success and compensation award.

Cases involving unfair dismissal, mistreatment at work, racial abuse for example are not specific personal injury cases.  Yet non the less these cases are serious matters and deserve attention.

It is possible for a no win no fee solicitor to take on cases like these even though there are no physical injuries involved.

They should be able to successfully prove and win your case with no cost to the claimant as most if not all costs can be recovered in court.

If your case falls outside of the above a solicitor will have to evaluate this on a cost basis and assess the level inconvenience or damage caused by the actions of those responsible.  It may be in such cases that the solicitor agrees to take costs from your settlement or it may be in such cases that you will have to pay for the solicitors time to take the matter forward.

We receive many enquiries from people wishing to sue against loss of income, damages against the media, council or loan organisations to name a few.  Many decide not to move forward based upon the level of costs involved.
