Grimsby’s docks, food processing plants, warehouses and factories produce some of the most serious personal injury and workplace accidents we see.

Our expertise covers:

• Accidents at work: taking on employers whose unsafe systems, inadequate training or dangerous premises caused your injury.
• Warehouse accidents: claims for injuries caused by falling stock, unsafe racking and vehicle movements in busy distribution centres.
• Factory accidents: representing production and processing workers injured by machinery, repetitive work and unsafe lines.
• Forklift accidents: acting for workers struck, crushed or injured by lift trucks in yards, warehouses and loading bays.
• Slips, trips and falls: holding occupiers and councils responsible for hazards they should have dealt with.
• Serious injuries: guiding families through brain injury, spinal injury, amputation and fatal accident claims with care and expertise.
• Car accidents: winning compensation for drivers and passengers injured by careless road users.
• Military injury claims: claims against the MOD for NFCI, hearing loss, PTSD and injuries sustained in training.
• Industrial disease: compensation for deafness, vibration damage, dermatitis and other conditions caused by years of exposure at work.
• Asbestos claims: fighting for people diagnosed with mesothelioma, asbestosis and pleural disease, no matter how long ago the exposure happened.

Any No Win No Fee solicitor can promise maximum compensation. We prove it. Here are some recent claims won by Nigel Askew Solicitors:

• A young passenger suffered multiple injuries when his friend’s car went out of control and hit a tree. These included a mild traumatic brain injury and psychiatric injury. The claim settled for £130,000.
• An employee fell through a sheet-covered hole cut into an upper floor on a building site. He suffered spinal fractures, PTSD and a traumatic brain injury. Liability was denied but the claim settled for £500,000 after court proceedings.
• A bricklayer fell from a scaffold on a house extension that had no safety rails fitted. He suffered multiple injuries and the claim settled for £100,000.
• A Royal Navy diver developed NFCI after being given inadequate cold weather protection during training, ending his diving career. His claim against the Ministry of Defence settled for £850,000.

No Win No Fee solicitors charge a success fee of up to 25% of your compensation, payable only if your claim wins. At Nigel Askew Solicitors, our fee never exceeds the 25% cap, and it is confirmed in writing before your claim begins.

The table below provides an illustrative example:

The 25% cap applies only to your compensation for pain and suffering and your past financial losses. Compensation for future losses, such as future earnings and care, is fully protected and never reduced by our fee.

Making a No Win No Fee claim depends on three straightforward requirements:

• You were injured within the last three years
• The accident or illness was caused by another party’s negligence
• You suffered physical, psychological or financial harm as a result

The three-year rule is not always fixed. Here are some exceptions:

• If you were under 18 when injured, your time limit runs to your 21st birthday
• Where an illness developed gradually, such as an industrial disease, the clock starts on the date your condition was first linked to its cause.
• No limitation period applies at all while a person lacks the mental capacity to bring a claim themselves.

A No Win No Fee agreement, known legally as a Conditional Fee Agreement or CFA, means your solicitor only gets paid if your claim succeeds. The financial risk of pursuing your claim sits entirely with us, not with you.

Three features define every agreement we offer:

• You pay nothing to begin. Your claim starts without any upfront payment, whatever your circumstances.
• You pay nothing if the claim fails. If your claim is unsuccessful for any reason, whether on liability or medical grounds, you owe us nothing for the work done.
• A capped fee only when you win. Our success fee is capped at 25% of your compensation and agreed in writing from the outset.

Importantly, most of our costs are not paid by you at all. They are recovered from the losing party’s insurer, such as your employer’s liability policy or the at-fault driver’s motor insurance.

From your first call to the day your compensation arrives, your No Win No Fee personal injury claim moves through five stages:

1. Tell us what happened. One free phone call is all it takes. We listen to your circumstances, ask the right questions and tell you honestly whether your claim can win.
2. Sign your CFA. Your Conditional Fee Agreement sets out everything in plain English, including our capped success fee, so there are no surprises later.
3. Leave the hard work to us. Your senior personal injury solicitor gathers the evidence, arranges independent medical assessments and deals directly with the other side’s insurers while you focus on getting better.
4. When you win. The insurer pays your compensation, our agreed fee comes out of the award, and the bulk of our costs are claimed back from the losing side.
5. If the claim does not succeed. You walk away owing nothing. The CFA wipes our fees, and the insurance we set up at the start covers the opponent’s costs.

We give every enquiry an honest assessment. If we do not believe your claim can succeed, we will say so from the very first call.

Your injury has already cost you enough. Take the first step towards the compensation you deserve by contacting Nigel Askew Solicitors today.
