Can I make a ‘no win no fee’ claim for dental negligence?

Short Answer:

Yes, if you believe your dentist has been negligent you may be able to make a dental negligence claim on a ‘no win, no fee’ basis. In fact, the vast majority of dental negligence cases are funded this way. A ‘no win, no fee’ gives you peace of mind that you won’t face a large legal bill, even if your claim is unsuccessful.

Long Answer:

There are many ways in which a dentist can be negligent (see ‘What is Dental Negligence?’).

If you suspect you have suffered as a result of negligent dental treatment, you may decide to seek legal advice from an experienced Dental Negligence Solicitor, such as Aston Knight.

Initial Consultation

At Aston Knight, we offer a free, no obligation, initial consultation. This is an opportunity to discuss your dental treatment and we can consider whether such treatment is likely to amount to dental negligence. We will also discuss the impact of the treatment and the personal injury and financial losses you may be entitled to recover.

No Win, No Fee

If we believe there are sufficient grounds for making a dental negligence claim, we will agree to represent you and we will discuss your funding options.

One of your funding options will be for Aston Knight to represent you on a Conditional Fee Agreement, also known as a ‘no-win, no-fee’ agreement.

A ‘no win, no fee’ is a popular way of funding a dental negligence claim because it means:

1. You won’t have to pay our legal costs upfront as your claim progresses.

2. You won’t have to pay our legal costs should your claim be unsuccessful.

3. You get the legal help you need from an expert dental negligence solicitor, but without the financial stress/worry surrounding legal fees.
