You do not have to live in England to claim compensation for injuries. In most cases you will sign a ???Conditional Fee Agreement??? where the solicitor agrees not to charge a fee unless the case is successful. If the claim is successful in most cases the costs will be paid by the insurance company of the party who caused your accident. The solicitors will explain to you how this works.
Hi,
It's something like â??No Win No Fee" agreement. This is a written agreement between you and your solicitors in which they agree to act on your behalf in making the accident claims, but accept that they will only be paid their fees if the claim is successful. If the claim is lost, they will not be entitled to receive any fees, but they are likely to be able to recover any expenses that they have paid out on your behalf, for example in obtaining your medical records and a medical report, or fees paid to the Court, and they can usually ask your legal expenses insurers to pay them on your behalf.
