What is No Win No Fee?

No win no fee means that lawyers do not charge for their ser­vices unless they win the case. This does not mean that you will not incur other costs asso­ci­ated with your case, unfor­tu­nately. No win no fee is only applic­a­ble to the lawyer’s fees, which means that if you have other expenses such as med­ical bills and insur­ance deductibles, you’ll still be respon­si­ble for pay­ing those. How­ever, in some instances your lawyer may be able to assist you in get­ting those expenses post­poned or deferred until after the case has been settled.
