Dear Jessica

Your question is very common as selecting the right personal injury lawyer can have a massive impact on your claim. The first thing you should look for is experience - if a lawyer accepts your claim but doesn't practice in personal injury law very often, they may not know how to progress the claim and force the other side to act in a timely way and to ultimately 'cough up'.

The next things you should think about are the individual hourly rates, whether an uplift fee applies, and whether there is a maximum cost cap. Online reviews can be a helpful indicator as to whether a law firm consistently delivers good outcomes.

We've published a step-by-step guide on how to on choose the best no win no fee lawyer which covers the above points in more detail.

All the best and good luck!
