The Accident Lawyer UK website is an advertisement for a legal referral
agency which operates a network of specialist solicitors dealing with personal injury compensation
claims on a risk free No
Win No Fee basis. With the exception of Criminal Injury
Compensation Authority cases and some Motor Insurance Bureau
cases compensation is paid in full with no deductions. If
you complete the contact form we will immediately put you
in touch with a specialist accident solicitor who is a member
of the Law Society panel of personal
injury experts. If after talking to that solicitor you
decide to take your potential claim no further you will
not be charged for any advice. The solicitors who are members
of our panel pay us an introduction fee for accepted claims
which is not passed on to their clients but comes out of
their legal fees charged to the relevant insurers.
PANEL SOLICITORS
All potential accident compensation claims clients in the United Kingdom that complete and send a contact form or who use the helpline are referred by Accident 999 Ltd to a specialist personal injury solicitor for free advice. Where the cause of action arose in England & Wales then a potential accident compensation claims client will be transferred to a law firm that has a solicitor who is a member of the Association of Personal Injury Lawyers (APIL) and that also has a solicitor who is a member of the Law Society's Personal Injury Panel. In suitable cases that solicitor will deal with a compensation claim on a no win no fee basis and will also guarantee that if the claim is successful then compensation will be paid in full with no deductions. Win or lose there will be no charge. To cover the costs of running this website and maintaining and administering our panel of law firms, Accident 999 Ltd is paid £350.00 plus vat for each case referred to a firm of solicitors in England & Wales which results in a retainer. Similar, though not identical, arrangements apply for potential clients whose cause of action arose in Scotland or Northern Ireland who are referred to lawyers operating in those countries. In no case is the referral fee paid by the client but is a charge paid by the solicitor who receives the referral. These arrangements do not apply in CICA cases.
