* In contentious business, a solicitor may not calculate fees or other charges as a percentage or proportion of any award or settlement in accordance with section 149 of the Legal Services Regulation Act 2015.


** Subject to Legal Services Regulation Act 2015 (Advertising) Regulations 2020: Regulation 6(c) - "...a legal practitioner shall not refer to the quantum of a possible award of damages save insofar as by reference to the Personal Injuries Assessment Board Book of Quantum or other guidelines as may be published by the Personal Injuries Assessment Board or other statutory authority or statutory body."

*** No Win No Fee Explained - A ‘no win no fee’ arrangement is a financial agreement made between a solicitor and client in which the solicitor agrees to only be paid if the case is won. This arrangement is often used in personal injury and other civil cases, and it enables people who may not be able to afford the cost of a solicitor upfront to still pursue legal action. The exact terms of the agreement, including what defines a “win” and any additional costs that the client may be liable for, should be clearly defined in the contract between the client and the solicitor.
