Will I have to go to court?
This is a very difficult question to answer. You may have to go to court. You will of course be given guidance and support if this is required. Often many cases do not go to court and settle by way of an out of court settlement.
Remedy Law will work on the basis that your claim will end up going to court as if we did not, we would be doing all those we represent a disservice. We do not automatically seek for your claim to be settled out of court if we not feel you will be properly compensated but will listen to your wishes and work with you to achieve a positive outcome.
FUNDING
If most cases we can offer you a No Win, No Fee Agreement. This means that you will not have to pay us unless we are successful in your claim. If we are successful in your claim you will need to pay us a success fee which is capped at no more than 25% of your compensation.
If your claim is unsuccessful, we simply do not get paid
