Our Fee Structure

Success Fee: If your claim is successful, our success fee is charged as a percentage of compensation awarded to you. This fee covers our legal services and includes the cost of After the Event (ATE) insurance to protect you against having to pay the other side’s costs if your claim is unsuccessful.

No Win, No Fee Explained: You will not pay any legal fees if your claim is unsuccessful. However, if we secure compensation for you, our success fee will be deducted from your compensation award before payment to you.

When You Might Be Liable for Costs:

  • If you choose to terminate your agreement with us but later succeed with your claim through other means, such as through another firm of solicitors, you may be liable for the cost of the work we have completed on your behalf.
  • In other exceptional circumstances as detailed in our instruction agreement and terms of business, such as if you have misled us or falsely represented part of your claim.

These terms will be fully outlined in your instruction agreement and Terms of Business with us, and are available for you to review before you make any binding commitment. You are under no obligation to these terms by making an initial enquiry.

Making a claim for work injuries abroad

Whether you travel regularly for work, or you were injured on a one-off excursion, your employer has a duty of care while you work abroad.

They have a responsibility to reduce risks. If this is not done, then they could be liable for work injury damages claims.

Even if you have been injured abroad, you can raise a claim back home. At Jones Whyte, we will begin the claims process by taking your statement. This allows us to establish exactly what happened and who is at fault.

We will gather supporting evidence, such as medical records, and inform the other side of the claim. While this is ongoing, we can help you access medical care to support your recovery.

Once liability is accepted, we will continue to support you while the appropriate level of compensation is calculated.

Most claims are settled out of court. If court action is needed, our solicitors will show that they are tough and experienced litigators.

Compensation can help to make up for lost earnings, injuries suffered and the distress this has caused
