Dr_Evil said:the only people who benefit from "no win no fee" claims are the sollicitors, not you and certainly not the council.
Just make an official complaint with the council about the pavement slabs you fell over and try watch where you're walking next time....
Guru said:I'm sure he'll be seeing it that way when he gets his nice payout
Dr_Evil said:What payout? 2 years being hassled by solicitors, answering letters, doing medical examinations, then most of the win going to the solicitors and you having the leftover, if any... ?
TheDogFather said:I claimed through some firm that advertised on TV, they sent someone round to take a statement, they phoned me a few times to let me know what was going on, sent me some papers to sign, one visit to a doctor who coached me (slightly), about 8 months or so and a cheque for £3500. They took nothing from it, their fees were added to it not deducted from it.

What about God for making him fall like a fool?scorza said:Possibly Swansea council if they were negligent, and he now has a fractured elbow as a result.
scorza said:. I think Jimmy Carr did a quip about this, when his car blew up because of a faulty fuel tank. If he was any other nationality in the world he would have sued and got lots of money, but because he was British he instead went and bought another car from the same dealer.

jdickerson said:I've fallen down about 30 stone steps after tripping on a loose bit of kerbing. Did I sue? No. I laughed at my own ineptituted and not looking where I was going. I ripped my jeans, scraped my elbow and that was that. How he procurred these injuries is beyond me unless he jumped into the air and through himself at the ground a dozen times.
