META: Despite the fact legal aid is no longer available in such cases, a personal injury solicitor may still be able to assist you on a ‘no win, no fee’ basis. If you feel you have a strong case, make every effort to secure representation in this way?

Before the year 2000, legal aid was available for personal injury claims. However, as with many areas of law, especially such things as head injury compensation etc, personal injury claims were becoming more and more costly to the UK tax payer and as a consequence, the Government felt obliged to cut off such access to people. Another way of accessing justice has had to be found by personal injury solicitors as a result of this, otherwise some people would never be able to afford to try and make a claim.

As unfortunate as it sounds and despite the fact that most people who are connected to the British legal systems would attempt to protest otherwise, the best levels of justice are only ever available for the super rich! We already know that deep down this is absolutely true. If the Government were ever trying to argue against this fact, they would never have stopped legal aid for personal injury cases in the first place.

But, they have stopped it. So, where does this leave you when you have experienced an accident that was not your fault? Having your case taken on by a personal injury solicitor may be difficult if you do not have the necessary funds to pay them for their service?

This is where a personal injury solicitor would have boxed very clever and devised a way around the Government’s cruel lack of compassion in this regard. You will have a strong case of a ‘no win no fee’ agreement if you satisfy a certain criteria.

The relevant criteria that will be assessed in this regard are as follows:

The accident must not have been your fault.

Legal entity or another person (e.g. a company) an accident they must have been responsible for. Liabiltiy arises usually through their breach of lack of care, duty and negligence towards you.

In some way a loss has to have been suffered on your part. This could be through pain and suffering or some direct financial loss that you are entitled to be compensated for.

If the above criteria can be identified successfully, you would be far more likely of securing personal injury solicitors that will take your case on. You will not be able to progress with your claim if you are unable to satisfy any of the criteria. That is unless you are willing to instruct the personal injury solicitors yourself and pay them accordingly. Your chances of success of winning the case, even then,needs to be made clear right from the start.

When legal aid was stopped personal injury solicitors had to find a way of filling this void in the legal system. Perhaps there are some firms where it is true to say, they are making profit out of other people’s misfortunes; I know there is a lot of people who think this out there. Trying to get some money back is every individuals right especailly, when they have suffered an injury whereby they have experienced financial loss. It’s even worse when the accident was not your fault? It would be a very mean spirited person who attempted to argue otherwise (i.e. our lovely Government)!
