Funding a Medical Negligence Claim

Russell Jones & Walker are happy to discuss the merits of your medical negligence claim at your convenience.

We are able to pursue cases under Conditional Fee Agreements (sometimes known as ‘No Win No Fee’ agreements) and with Legal Services Commission (LSC) Funding (previously known as Legal Aid). It  is important to ask your lawyer about these to ensure you are not unduly worried about costs.

In all cases, if your claim is successful, the side paying your compensation will also pay your legal costs. If your claim is run under a Conditional Fee Agreement and your claim is unsuccessful, your Solicitor waives their fee and you are not liable for any of their costs.  With LSC funding, the Legal Services Commission will review your case on a regular basis and decide whether the chances of the case merit continuing with it.
