To find out more about our Essex-based solicitors and the services they can offer, get in touch with our friendly claims advisors. We've helped thousands of people in stressful situations, like Delia:

"It was straightforward to get in contact. Luke rang me back really quickly and put my mind at ease. He listened and said he would forward my details to a solicitor that could help with my injury/negligence claim and who would ring me tomorrow morning. Very pleasant and helpful experience. Thank you so much."

Only pay a fee if you receive compensation

Our No Win No Fee solicitors will take a success fee from the compensation you are awarded for a successful claim in the form of a percentage of your damages. This could be up to 25% but it won't be more than that, except in cases of road traffic accidents. Changing laws mean our solicitors will now take a payment of 35% of the final compensation amount plus VAT for all road traffic accident claims.

“We conduct ongoing training to ensure our legal services team have all the tools they need to help people. And we have a dedicated Quality Control and Audit Lead, who is responsible for ensuring our clients get the best service possible.

“So you know if you speak to the First4Lawyers team, you’ll be speaking to some of the most capable people in the legal industry.”
