There were some posts in threads by T.C about this.
Maybe worth a search on here.
Found in this thread that maybe of interest... | T.C wrote: | | Eddie Hitler wrote: | Any recommendations? What's the deal with the new rules, I heard solicitors can now only work up to an £800 limit, after that it comes out of any claim made. I don't think I have legal cover.  .
After the last conveyer belt experience I had a few years ago I'd rather have someone working on my side, not against.

If your injury claim is valued at under £25,000 then your case goes onto the portal fast track system with fixed fees of £800. You can still get funding under a CFA (No win no fee) but as you have pointed out it tends ti be a conveyor belt system.
The £25K is based on the combined figure of General damages (injury element) as well as the Special damages (non injury element)
If your injuries are over the £25K barrier then it is multi track and fees are uncapped which means that the case can be investigated properly and external experts can used to help establish liability if required.
But without knowing the extent of your injuries, at this time it is impossible to determine a value. |
There may be other bits of advice too. ____________________ ...and the whirlwind is in the thorn trees, it's hard for thee to kick against the pricks...

Is this after falling off your push bike, and if so who are you suing, Jack Frost? ____________________ Yamaha MT-03 '08 (crashed)
