No Win No fee also labelled as No Foal No Fee, is a phrase solicitors’ commonly will use to describe the standard fee method on personal injury or litigation cases. Briefly, it means that if you don’t win your case, you don’t have to pay legal fees. In the case of being successful, solicitors cannot charge a fee in relative amounts to the awarded sum. You will often see the statement:
‘In contentious business, a solicitor may not calculate fees or other charges as a percentage or proportion of any award or settlement.’
