How Does No Win No Fee Work for Personal Injury Claims?

Many people struggle to afford legal support, which is where a no-win, no-fee arrangement can be beneficial. But what does no fee mean?

What is a win?

Most cost agreements define a “win” as an awarded settlement amount in your favour. In Queensland, compensation claims are typically settled out of court to avoid the high court fees.

Your lawyer’s no-fee costs agreement will contain the definition of service fees. There are two main types if you lose:

  1. Professional and barrister legal costs are waived, but you are still liable for outlays (like initial investigative reports and assessments)
  2. Pay nothing

At Splatt Lawyers, we waive all legal costs if your claim does not succeed.

You need strong medical evidence to prove a personal injury claim. We fund the cost of these reports until you win. If you lose, you pay zero. Splatt Lawyers bills fees upon settlement, and we don’t charge upfront costs or an additional uplift fee.

  • Legal practitioners will charge professional fees and outlay costs when you win a compensation case. However, a no-win, no-fee lawyer can also charge an uplift fee (also known as a success fee).
  • They are legally able to bill this additional legal cost in Queensland. Splatt Lawyers does not charge this uplift fee.

What is No Win, No Fee, No Risk

Our Brisbane No Win, No Fee personal injury lawyers provide 100% No Win, No Fee funding, which means no secret charges “pop up” when you least expect them. Here’s how it works:

1. It's Free to Start

It’s free to find out if you have a valid case, your rights, and the steps to the best possible outcome.

2. Zero Out-of-Pocket Expenses

You will owe nothing until settlement and nothing if you lose.

3. We Cover Disbursement Costs & Court Fees

We cover these additional costs until settlement and won’t ask you to agree to an expensive disbursement loan.

  • The cost of medical reports and assessments
  • Barrister expenses
  • Court filing fees
  • Other file running expenses
  • Other party’s legal costs (which is rare)

4. Our Legal Fees are Capped

No-win, no-fee lawyers in Brisbane typically charge legal fees only if a claim is successful, and Splatt Lawyers also offers capped fees

5. We Don't Charge Uplift or Success Fees

Splatt’s no-win, no-fee compensation lawyers do not charge uplift fees for a successful conclusion.

6. A Costs Agreement with No Hidden Costs

Before we begin work, you will receive a copy of our cost agreement, which shows that there are no hidden “pop-up” costs that could reduce the settlement amount.

Capped Legal Costs

Section 347 of the Legal Profession Act QLD (LPA) determines how a law firm charges fees in Queensland. Under this legislation, a personal injury solicitor cannot bill more than 50% of the net settlement figure. This law does not mean you will be charged half of a settlement amount as a legal fee. It simply means that legal fees are capped.

If you have not had a legal claim previously funded on a no-win, no-fee basis, you could have questions about a no-win, no-fee arrangement. Our solicitors will explain our legal fees during a free initial consultation. Call 1800 700 125

Beware of Hidden Costs

A no-win, no-pay case sounds risk-free (and should be), but this isn’t always true. That’s because a no-fee legal agreement can have hidden terms and conditions. How a Queensland compensation law firm charges for an injury claim depends on their own policy.

What Percent Do No Win No Fee Lawyers Take?

People often question the percentage that no-win, no-fee lawyers take from a settlement amount. It’s natural to be concerned about getting little financial compensation after paying professional fees.

If you are seeking compensation, Queensland personal law protects your interests by placing a maximum limit on the professional and uplift fees charged by no-win, no-pay solicitors, which is 50%.

In most cases, you will not be charged this amount, which helps ensure your experience is stress-free, as this legislation assists you in achieving the best possible outcome.

This rule is called the 50/50 rule.

Best No Win No Pay Lawyers Brisbane FAQs

What are the three types of funding offered by Brisbane No Win No Fee Lawyers ?

Not all expert lawyers offer the same level of financial risk coverage; some may charge uplift fees or require disbursement loans.

Many law firms will have a different legal costs agreement that explains their no-win, no-fee terms and conditions. There are three main types:

  1. You fund all your medical expenses and disbursement costs.
  2. You agree to an expensive loan to cover these expenses (disbursement funding).
  3. The law firm covers all costs if you lose.

Before seeking advice from a Brisbane law firm, be clear about what you will pay in every circumstance. 

Splatt’s no-win, no-fee lawyers cover 100% of your costs and fees until settlement. It’s our no-financial-risk guarantee.

Disbursements are the other expenses incurred to achieve a compensation payout. Disbursement funding is a loan that covers these costs, such as:

  • Expert witness
  • Radiology
  • Audiology
  • Orthopaedic
  • Barrister and court fees

Typically, these loans carry a high interest rate, which is deducted from the proceeds of a claim.

If you lose your case, you may not be liable for your lawyer’s legal fees, but you could still owe for disbursements paid on your behalf. Our cost agreement states that we cover these costs, which means you don’t need a loan, and we will continue to cover them even if you lose.

no win no fee arrangement icon

A funding arrangement that charges legal fees in the event of a favourable outcome is called a “no win, no fee” agreement or a conditional costs agreement. When solicitors work under a no-fee-costs agreement, they only charge fees when a client wins a case.

Typically, this funding is available for road accident compensation, public place accidents and work accidents.

No-win, no-fee lawyers usually require clients to sign a costs agreement that outlines the structure of their fees and any potential additional costs. There are several risks and benefits of a no-win, no-fee arrangement, including:

  1. No upfront costs: You may not have the funds to access expert advice.
  2. No ongoing costs: You need evidence to support your case, like medical reports and other evidence.
  3. No bill for legal services if your case fails

However:

  1. If a claim is unsuccessful, clients typically do not pay legal fees, but they may still be responsible for disbursements such as medical reports or court fees.
  2. Some law firms may charge uplift fees or success fees, which can reduce the client’s final compensation amount if the claim is successful.
  3. Clients should be cautious of disbursement loans, which may require repayment even if the claim is unsuccessful, potentially leading to unexpected costs.

A no-win, no-pay legal agreement can be helpful for people who lack the finances to access legal representation. But knowing the risks and drawbacks can make all the difference.

  1. If you win your case, deducting your legal expenses will reduce the compensation payout.
  2. If you can afford to fund your legal case without no-win, no-fee finance, you retain 100% of a successful claim. The downside of this approach is the possibility of financial loss if your case is unsuccessful.
  3. Some No Win No Fee agreements may require clients to cover certain external costs or disbursements, even if their case does not succeed.
  4. The risk of incurring costs if they lose their case can deter clients from pursuing their claims, making it one of the drawbacks of No Win No Fee arrangements.

Our lawyers can explain how it works during a free claim check.

A conditional costs agreement between a client and a compensation lawyer outlines the calculation of legal fees, including who is responsible for the other party’s costs, including court fees.
