Dog bites can cause serious physical and emotional trauma, often leaving victims unsure where to turn for help. At Ison Harrison, we believe everyone deserves access to justice—without the worry of upfront legal costs. That’s why we offer No Win No Fee dog bite claims, making the process clear, risk-free, and accessible for all.
What Does “No Win No Fee” Mean?
A No Win No Fee agreement (also known as a Conditional Fee Agreement or CFA) means:
- No upfront legal fees: You pay nothing at the start of your claim.
- No legal fees if you lose: If your claim is unsuccessful, you won’t be charged for the work done on your case.
- A capped fee if you win: If your claim succeeds, a pre-agreed percentage (usually up to 25% of your compensation, including VAT) is deducted to cover your solicitor’s success fee.
This approach removes financial barriers, allowing you to focus on your recovery while we handle your claim.
Why Choose No Win No Fee for Dog Bite Claims?
Dog bite claims can be complex. Challenges may include:
- Identifying the dog’s owner
- Dealing with insurers who deny liability
- Navigating injuries that are severe or long-lasting
- Addressing issues with banned breeds or breaches of the Dangerous Dogs Act 1991
With a No Win No Fee agreement, you can pursue your claim with confidence, knowing you won’t face unexpected legal bills if your case doesn’t succeed.
Your Rights After a Dog Bite
If you’ve been bitten by a dog in England or Wales, you may be entitled to compensation for:
- Medical treatment and rehabilitation
- Lost earnings if you’re unable to work
- Psychological distress and trauma
- Scarring or long-term injuries
The law protects your right to claim, whether the incident happened in a public place, at work, or even on private property. It’s important to seek legal advice promptly, as strict time limits apply to personal injury claims.
