What Compensation Am I Entitled To?
You may be facing medical bills and time off work after suffering a whiplash injury. If you have been in an accident that wasn’t entirely your fault, our whiplash injury lawyers can help you claim things like:
- Medical expenses
- Pain and suffering
- Loss of income
- Rehabilitation expenses
- Loss of enjoyment of life
Whiplash injury compensation is important. Even if your injuries are seemingly minor, your quality of life may be affected in the short term, causing you to suffer a loss of income or lose the inability to do the things you had planned. If left untreated, neck injuries can also lead to other complications, such as poor posture and back pain. Our skilled whiplash injury lawyers will fight to get you fair compensation.

You’ve probably seen a lot of lawyers use the term ‘No Win, No Fee’. Long story short: you only pay us when you achieve a successful outcome. So if you don’t get paid, we don’t get paid.
Let’s break it down.
- We start by reviewing your claim in detail and give you a clear assessment of your prospects for success. We’re experts in compensation law, so we can give you an accurate assessment of your claim.
- Once we’ve established that you should pursue your claim, you can tell us if you want us to proceed as your legal representatives. To formally appoint us as your legal representative, you will enter into a ‘Conditional Costs Agreement’ with us. This is a legal contract that sets out the likely costs of running your claim based on our fees, as well as the rights and responsibilities of you as the client and us as your legal representatives.
- We’ll explain it clearly and thoroughly, with as little legal speak as possible – we promise you’ll understand it completely.
- Importantly, this agreement will set out the ‘No Win, No Fee’ arrangement in black and white. This specifies that you will not pay us anything if your claim is not successful. Our ‘No Win, No Fee’ agreement also covers you for disbursements, or outlays. These are expenses that we may need to pay to progress your claim, including medical reports, expert witness fees and barristers’ fees.
- In certain circumstances, you may be required to pay the other party’s legal costs if you are unsuccessful.
- Remember, your success rests on you providing us with an honest, comprehensive account of all matters relevant to your claim.
