If you’ve suffered a Personal Injury, we can help you keep 100% of your compensation

If you’ve been injured and the incident was at least partly someone else’s fault, you could be entitled to compensation for your injuries. You may feel as though you don’t know where to begin but we can help you calmly establish the facts and advise whether or not you’re likely to succeed in a claim for compensation.

Our experienced specialists have the expertise you need on your side in such a difficult situation. They will work with you and make every step of the process as simple as possible and give you the best possible chance of receiving compensation for your injuries.

How much do no win, no fee solicitors charge?

Our Personal Injury specialists can help you retain 100% of your compensation.

Many personal injury solicitors operate on a ‘no win, no fee’ basis, often charging clients a success fee of up to 25% of any damages awarded.

At Valerie Holmes Law, we recover our fees from the at-fault party instead. This means you won’t pay any additional fees, and you keep 100% of your compensation for all personal injury claims.

What type of injuries could you claim for?

There are many situations in which you could suffer an injury. The injuries could affect any part of your body, and many injuries affect multiple limbs or areas of the body. The following are some of the more common types of incidents that could lead to a compensation claim:

Get in touch today

If you’ve suffered an injury and feel that you should be entitled to compensation – even if it doesn’t fit with any of the descriptions – contact us to determine whether or not you may have a valid claim. We can discuss the details of the incident with you and advise you of the best way forward.

  • Road Accidents – Whether you are in a car, motorcycle or any other type of vehicle, you may be entitled to claim compensation. The accident could involve any number of other vehicles, including those driven by an uninsured or untraced driver (the latter is commonly known as a hit-and-run incident).
  • Cycling Accidents – If you were cycling and were hit by another road user such as a motorist, you may be entitled to claim compensation against them for your injuries.
  • Workplace Accidents – You may have been injured at work, either alone or along with other colleagues. Your employer has a duty of care to ensure that you are able to carry out your work safely and should follow certain procedures in the event of a workplace accident.

  • Accidents in a public place – This could include a park or other public space, a shop or shopping centre, or even a restaurant, leisure facility or entertainment venue.

  • Criminal injuries – If you’ve been attacked or assaulted and left with injuries as a result, you may be able to claim criminal damages.

How much compensation might you receive?

Many claimants want to know how much compensation they might receive for their injuries. This can vary significantly, depending on the specific circumstances of the incident that caused your injuries. However, the following should give you some idea of the factors that can influence the level of compensation that you may be entitled to:

Extent of your injuries

Some personal injuries can have life-changing long-term effects, whereas others may be less serious with good prospects of a full recovery. The severity of your injuries will be one of the key factors in calculating the level of compensation you may be entitled to.

Financial implications of your injuries

Your injuries may prevent you from working or force you into lower-paid roles, and you might need specialist care or home and car adaptations. These costs can impact your finances, and your lawyer will seek compensation for them.

Psychological effects of your injuries

An injury can affect you psychologically, disrupting your normal life and causing distress for you and your loved ones. While this suffering can’t always be measured financially, in some cases, a level of compensation can still be claimed.

Our No Deductions FAQs

Many firms deduct a success fee – often up to 25% of your damages – from your compensation. We don’t. With our ‘No Deductions’ service, you pay nothing from your award.

They often deduct a success fee to cover their time and legal costs. Many also use claims‑management companies, and the deduction helps pay their marketing fees.

Typically up to 25% of your compensation. For instance, on a £10,000 award, a 25% fee would reduce what you receive to £7,500. With us, you keep the full £10,000.

Because we don’t use third‑party marketing or claims‑management firms, we don’t need to recoup marketing costs from your compensation. Instead, we charge our fees to the at‑fault party, ensuring you keep everything you’re awarded. Because we don’t use third‑party marketing or claims‑management firms, we don’t need to recoup marketing costs from your compensation.

You don’t pay a penny unless your claim succeeds. If the person responsible for your injury is found liable, their liability covers our fees — not your compensation.
