No-win no-fee compensation claims Submitted by: Jim on Apr 09, 2006

M1 Widening Scheme

You will no doubt be receiving a speculative letter any time now from companies who would like to undertake a "No Win No Fee" compensation claim on your behalf for the M1 widening works.

The likelihood of you receiving any compensation is fairly remote and these companies are very shrewd in using the system to their advantage.

You are unlikely to be represented as an individual and similar compensation claims to your own will be grouped and submitted together however, (and this is the benefit to the companies concerned) they (the company working on your behalf) are entitled to receive a fee from the government to represent you for each and every claim even though claims have been grouped together.

There is also no guarantee of you receiving any compensation but the fees to the agent are paid in every case.
