We do not give legal advice; Our service is limited to the process and administration of the above compensation claims.
You do not need to use a claims management company to make a claim. Where applicable, you have the right to use any of the appropriate regulatory bodies for free in relation to your claim, including:
No Win, No Fee Claim
Our No Win No Fee Success Fee is based on which claim you are lodging and which expert panel member we refer you to. The legal panel can charge between:
- 25%-50% Inc VAT
The legal panel members will inform you about the exact fee before you enter into any agreement. There may be a termination fee if you cancel your claim with a panel member after the cooling-off period. We are paid a referral fee by our panel members for a successful referral. Fairweather Group Ltd will not charge you for our service.
How Claim.co.uk will assist you
Fairweather Group Ltd provides this site, Claim.co.uk, as part of an introductory service that aims to put you in touch with a specialist solicitor or legal executive without delay. We will not charge you anything for doing this.
Solicitors on the panel pay a financial contribution to our marketing costs and the upkeep of this website, in order for us to provide this service. Further details about our arrangement with panel firms are available on request. Fairweather Group Ltd are not qualified lawyers and do not provide legal advice.
If we feel we cannot help you, we will let you know, and of course, you are free to seek legal advice elsewhere immediately.
Any resulting contract that you enter into for legal services will be with one of our panel solicitors, not Fairweather Group Ltd. Fairweather Group Ltd therefore, do not accept any responsibility or related liability for any advice given to you or other work carried out on your behalf, by our panel solicitors, or any other solicitor that you chose to appoint. You are under no obligation to instruct one or any of our panel solicitors.
Solicitor firms pay for marketing, call handling and other services. This does not affect the value of your claim in any way. If you are close to the time limit for making a claim, do not wait, contact the solicitor firm immediately.
