Avoid the Lien – Ignore their WIP

What the hell am I talking about here?

This is a very important issue when considering which law firm to represent you for your personal injury claim.

Recently I have heard that a law firm is pushing claims to court, even though they think they will lose, as their WIP is to high, in an attempt to recoup costs. WIP refers to Work in Progress, how much work the law firm has put into the claim so far.

They also have put a lien on property in case the client cannot pay. This is a disgusting practice as ‘No Win No Fee’ does not apply if the claim goes to court for most law firms. Not all ‘No Win No Fee’ law firms are the same.

I have seen over 6500 clients in 15 years an always read the entire T&C’s of every contract the law firm provides, has your lawyer don the same for you? Have you read through the contract in it’s entirety?

Be very careful if the law firm representing you asks to put a lien on your property. Are you at risk of losing it all?

If you want a second opinion on your claim please contact us via email or phone. You can change firms if you are not happy with their services.
