How do I know if I’m eligible to claim?

Without looking through your policy, we cannot give you a definitive answer as every single business insurance policy now needs to be considered against the detailed judgement to calculate the specific implications for each one and we are happy to be able to offer this enhanced service at no charge.

Our panel of solicitors will conduct a free assessment of your insurance policy and scrutinise the small print so you don’t have to.

If eligible, they will work hard to quantify your losses and recover the best possible pay out from your insurer.

No Win, No Fee is a term used to describe an agreement between a Solicitor and a Claimant. It states that in this instance, the Claimant cannot be charged if their Business Interruption insurance claim is unsuccessful.

However, if your case is successful the solicitor may take up to 25% of the compensation awarded, although this will be subject to your individual circumstances and the actual fee may be more or less than this.

In some circumstances the solicitor may wish to insure the case with an “after the event” insurance policy, this will be done on a case by case basis.

In the circumstances where a Claimant cancels an agreement outside of the ‘cooling off’ period or is not co-operating, they could be charged a fee that is reasonable in the circumstances, reflecting the work undertaken by the Solicitor.
