No Win No Fee – The Proper Way

Here I describe what No Win No Fee is and why you should hire a solicitor like ours for a compensation claim. You may have given up all hope of doing anything about a legal issue. But we can help you and you should do something about it before your rights expire, as some cases have time limits.

Many people need a solicitor in Spain to get redress for issues such as an injury after an accident, investigating a medical negligence case or for an employment case. But they often do not do anything about it because of the language difficulty, or they do not understand their rights, or they cannot afford the legal fees.

Why use us? Our solicitor speaks English fluently, we can look at the chances of your claim free of charge, and we can offer the usual path for a legal case, or a “No Win No Fee” or Conditional Fee option. You can have confidence with us, we are serious and professional, we know what we are doing, and above all, we like to help people.

Maybe you are short of funds, and looking back on an event which cost you a lot of money and was not your fault, and that you could do with right now. It may have been an issue with your employer, a negligence case by a Bank, a medical case, a problem with an insurance company or perhaps misrepresentation by a professional firm.

No Win No Fee, when it is done right, is perfect for those of you who don´t have the spare cash to see justice, and pay Court costs and barrister fees in advance. Think back; is there something which is still really annoying you that you could resolve with our help, without having to pay for it until you get the money back?

If you had written off the loss of income or funds anyway, then isn´t it worth seeing if a No Win No Fee option is possible? You will not have to spend anything and can still have a chance of recovering the funds you lost by being injured in a car accident that was not your fault, a fall in a supermarket car park, your employer sacking you for no reason, or perhaps a problem with a Bank investment?

We should mention that No Win No Fee is not a way to get revenge on a neighbour by taking them to Court, nor just for free legal advice; it is for issues that have had real consequences for you and it has to be something whereby you have suffered economic repercussions. We are starting to do this as we have had a number of people who cannot afford to pay the costs of legal action for big cases in advance.

When done properly, you will NOT pay upfront fees (even though in Spain it is usual to have to pay Court fees in advance, and the concept of legal aid does not really exist). We advance these fees. But we do have certain requirements, one being the claim has to be for more than 30,000€ or thereabouts. If you win, (and we do not proceed unless confident), you just pay a “Success fee” to us of the damages awarded. Perfectly fair, and everything would be detailed in a proper agreement worded in English.

Please think, do you have an issue that you decided not to do anything about. What are you waiting for? Maybe we can help. We should advise that we are not able to take on all cases on a No Win No fee basis but we will give our opinion and advice in most cases for free. Sometimes further documentation is required to evaluate a case (such as an expert medical report).

      Good Morning John,

      Thank you for your enquiry , what an aweful thing to happen.

      The dog, by the sounds of things, is viscious and unpredictable and should not be kept tied up in a public place, our concern is it may attack a child. If it is a Spanish registered dog and of a dangerous breed the owner should have a dog licence and insurance, you could check to see if the owners policy has liability insurance which should cover any costs you may have.

      The attack, by the sounds of things, is a serious attack and not only cuts and bruises. Our concern is the dog could do this again. You could denounce the owner at your local pólice station. We hope this helps and wish you a speedy recovery.

      Kind regards
      Nicola

    Hello. I was bitten by a dog recently, I attended a local urgencias and was given a tetanus, I enquired at the time about needing antibiotics and the doctor ignored my request, a few days later I was severely ill and my arm was inflamed and in agony, long story short 5 days later I had to have surgery on my arm and another surgery 2 days after that, with a total of 4 days in the hospital, I now have a huge scar on my arm and all this could have been prevented by the administration of antibiotics at the first treatment, every doctor I have seen has said this and have been furious on how I was treated. Would this be grounds for a claim of medical negligence?

    • Amanda Thomas

      Dear Claire, Firstly I am sorry about this, what an awful thing. I would need a lot more details, please could you send us the medical reports from the hospital and we will study and advise. Aldo if you have incurred the cost of surgery, major expenses etc. Kind regards Amanda

    Hi, on August last year I was diagnosed with a large hernia on my spine. I went through my doctor but was eventually given 400 mg a day to manage the pain as they were not doing operations due to pandemic. In February I had to borrow the money and have the op done privately,since then I am now addicted to morphine.
    I feel that the operation was urgent and should of been performed despite pandemic after learning the level of morphine they put me on is more than end of life care patients get.

    • Amanda Thomas

      Dear Lee, I am sorry but our lawyers responded yesterday from Molina Solicitors. We could not assist with this case, and recommend that you try other lawyers in Alicante City or Valencia. Kind regards.

    I was on a cruise in the carrabean in October five days into the cruise I fell up the stairs to the theatre. The show had just started so no lights and not a single member of staff available. I put up with the pain for nearly a week and by chance met the nurse in the coffee port who advised me to come down to the ship’s hospital. In short I am still in a lot of pain can I claim from the cruise company.

    • Amanda Thomas

      Dear Patricia, It could be worth a letter to the cruise company but for a legal claim it could be difficult as you would need proof and legal actions are complicated. You would also need a lawyer in the jurisdiction where the cruise company head office is located I believe. I hope that you recover soon. Kind regards

    could I ask someone to please ring me regard contesting a Will and advice on my current situation below

    Urgent help please – The passing of Michael John Cleave

    I am writing to you through desperate measures

    Dated Monday 22nd May 2023/05/2023

    Could you help, advise me with a extremely upsetting situation in Murcia? We are in England and are at our wits end, trying to resolve a potential criminal offence and a moral disaster.

    I have outlined briefly below what has been happening following my fathers death in Murcia, Spain on Satuday 13th May 2023. Can you please assist, or advise, in any way to help us please?

    My Name Gary Cleave – living in England

    Fathers name Michael John Cleave – resident of camposol, Murcia

    My father died following a fall in his home, on Satuday 13th May in Camposol, Murcia. Up to a week ago my My sister and I were sole beneficiary on his will. (I Have a copy)

    On a phone call to his solicitor at Murcia on Monday 15th May, I was told he had changed his Will and both my sister and myself were now, not named and that we did not need to come over.

    The new named alleged Executor of his will, who we do not know, but have since abtained her number has changed locks and alarms at my fathers Villa and has been seen with a van outside, removing household items.

    I have not been supplied with any documentation by my fathers solicitor to confirm and validate the change in his Will or confirm this was done in the correct way, legally.

    The alleged new Executor had informed neighbours of my dad not to inform either myself or my sister of his death. Witnessess are offered.

    We are concerned that my father has been cohersed into changing his will and obviously sickened with the actions of the New Executors entering his property and restricting access to us, my own fathers property with so many family memories in there.

    We have also been informed that the company MABS charity, of which the Executor works for, are now the beneficiary of his estate.
    I Have voice mail evidence that my father was extremely upset with the MABS charity for not offering him help. So, if this is case why would he leave his total estate to them unless he was cohersed into doing so.

    We would also question my dads state of mind at changing his Will a week before his death and are treating this as very suspiciously. I also have recorded evidence of the alledged Executor conversation with us regard his forgetfulness.

    We do not know the content of his alleged full new Will, but are extremely worried that the Executor could benefit from its contents.
    We have requested via a phone call from her some items of sentimental value and have been informed by her that these were gifted to others. Again we have no documented proof.

    Both my sister and me are so upset with both the death of my father and now this very upsetting situation.

    We are at the point of phoning the Spainish police as everyone believes that a crime is taking place.

    Can you please contact me on Uk 07944 652617 to advise what actions, legal route or police I should take to resolve this.

    My E mail is G.Cleave@hotmail.co.uk

    Regards Gary

    • Amanda Thomas

      Dear Gary, We are already in touch by email yesterday and I will get back to you when I receive the solicitor’s advice, but I have already given you some information, Kind regards

    I sustained injury when I fell into a manhole when the manhole cover collapsed under me. This occurred in July 2018 as I was recovering from an operation removing my right kidney due to cancer. I began the process by communicating with Casares Ayuntamiento, who passed the claim and all photographs, doctors report and police reportc, to Acosol, who are responsible for the this. In 2022 I got an email from Grupo Galilea, who are Acosol insurers stating that the claim was in their system.. Since this date and despite numerous emails from me ( I am not fluent in Spanish scanning telephone them) I have still not heard anything . Is this something you could assist with

    • Amanda Thomas

      Dear Michael, I am sorry but no you would need to engage a local lawyer to Casares. We do hope you manage to make some progress with this. With kind regards.
