How we fund your claim

We believe everyone has the right to justice, regardless of their financial circumstances. Our clients don’t pay a penny unless we win their case.

Risk-free case funding - no matter your financial circumstances.

Because of the expert knowledge and depth of investigation required to bring a successful claim forward, negligence litigation can be expensive. Understandably, people can be very worried about the legal costs. However, because of changes in the law, it is now possible for anyone to pursue a claim through the Courts without taking any financial risk.

Whatever your financial situation, the funding options available at Gadsby Wicks give you access to justice without the need to find the money upfront to finance the claim - guaranteed.

Legal Aid Scheme

This is a public funding method whereby the State agrees to cover your risk of incurring legal costs, available for certain types of claims relating to injuries to children at or around the time of birth.

Conditional Fee Agreements

Sometimes called “No Win No Fee Agreements”, this is an arrangement where we take on the risk of legal costs. This means that we only get paid if we win the case and you pay nothing if we lose.

Legal Expenses Insurance

You may have an existing insurance policy that includes cover for legal expenses. It is often included in general household policies and many people do not realise that they have it. We review any existing policies that you have at the outset to determine what cover you already have in place.

We will advise you independently and help you choose the option that’s right for your circumstances. No matter how your claim is funded, you will receive the same level of specialist expertise.

Our Claims Process

We start by putting you in touch with our experienced medical advisers, who will collate the relevant information and learn about what happened to you. They will bring your case details to a group meeting with our expert solicitors and together, we will determine whether you have a case. If you decide to proceed, you will have a dedicated solicitor by your side from beginning to end.
