www.female-focus.com – ensuring you get what you deserve


We have all seen adverts from solicitors saying that they will deal with claims on a no win no fee basis but what does this really mean? In recent years solicitors have been permitted to agree with their client to take a share of any money awarded in a successful personal injury


claim. Consequently even though an advert may say “genuine no win no fee” clients may find that they have agreed to pay their solicitor up to 25% of any damages obtained.


I do not do this because I believe that my clients should receive whatever compensation I can obtain for them in full. So if you are making a claim in the UK you should be clear what you are signing up for. The solicitor should explain fully the circumstances in which a client signs away part of the damages. If you are concerned about this, even if you have already settled a claim, please get in touch.


I deal with any kind of personal injury claim but I specialise in claims for asbestos. If you or someone you know has been diagnosed with an asbestos related condition or has breathing problems and has come into contact with asbestos in the UK, you may be able to claim damages or benefits in the UK. Even if you are not sure of the name of the company you were working for and even if it is not trading it may still be possible to bring a claim.


There are time limits for bringing claims so if you have been injured in the UK and are not sure what to do I urge you to get in touch as soon as possible. As indicated in my advert no deductions are made for costs from any award of damages. I am happy to talk to anyone free of charge about their individual situation to see if a claim is possible.


I can be contacted on 00 44 1244 340560 at info@woodslaw.co.uk or alternatively you can visit my website at www.woodslaw.co.uk.
