What is a Lawyer’s No Win No Fee Policy?
No Win No Fee is a payment structure that allows people of all financial situations to take legal action without being held back by upfront costs. Under this arrangement, you only pay legal fees if your case ends in a win.
It’s important to note that some lawyers’ No Win No Fee policies will require you to pay some “extras” (outlays). Carefully check your agreement to make sure you know exactly what you might need to cover at the end of your case, whether your claim is successful or not.
How It Works
- Free Initial Consultation — Let’s talk! We want to hear about your case, your thoughts, and your concerns.
- Detailed Case Assessment — We’ll do a deep dive into your case and assess the chances of success.
- No Win No Fee Agreement — If you’re eligible, we’ll provide you with a detailed No Win No Fee agreement.
- Building Your Case — Upon signing the agreement, our team will start working on your case.
- Negotiation and Litigation — Our lawyers will negotiate on your behalf and represent you in court if needed.
- Settlement or Court Decision — If we win, we’ll deduct our fees from your payout (no more than 50%). No win, no fee.
At WT Compensation Lawyers, we take pride in prioritising your well-being. Book a FREE case review and consultation today, and let’s see how we can help you get your settlement as soon as possible.
How Much Do No Win No Fee Lawyers Charge?
Our legal fees are a percentage of your compensation payment if your case is successful. We will discuss this with you in detail and clearly indicate this percentage in our No Win No Fee agreement. We’ll also make sure you’re happy with the fee agreement before we even start working on your case.
It’s usually about 25–40% payable, based on the work involved, the complexity of your case, the necessary outlays, and the risks that come with your case.
What is the 50/50 Legal Costs Rule?
The 50/50 rule is a regulation that places a fee cap on legal costs, including success fees, outlays, and lawyers’ hourly fees. Under Queensland law, legal costs cannot be higher than half of your settlement amount (50%).
This means that no matter how complex your case is or how many hours your lawyers spend working on it, you’ll always receive at least 50% of your compensation payout, after paying your lawyers’ professional fees.
What if I Win?
If we win your case, we’ll deduct our fees from the final settlement amount, including everything we agreed on in the No Win No Fee cost agreement.
What Happens if I Lose My Case?
If we don’t win your claim, you won’t need to pay our law firm any legal fees at all. That means not a cent for our services. You should be aware that there’s a slight chance you may need to pay some outlays, but everything will be laid out in our initial agreement.
Are There Any Hidden Costs?
No! We won’t make your life any more difficult with hidden fees. We believe in full transparency, and our lawyers will explain all potential fees and charges during our very first consultation. We will specify every cost in your agreement, and we won’t deviate from it.
What About Uplift Fees?
Some law firms charge an additional “uplift fee” — often up to 25% on top of their base fees — simply because they won your case. WT Compensation Lawyers does not charge uplift fees. Our fee is the agreed percentage of your settlement, clearly stated in your agreement from day one. No loading, no extras, no surprises — and no lock-in contracts either. If you’re ever unsure, you’re free to walk away before signing.

What Law Applies to No Win No Fee Compensation Claims in Queensland?
No Win No Fee (conditional costs) agreements for Queensland compensation claims are regulated under the Legal Profession Act 2007 (Qld), which sets out how lawyers must disclose their costs, caps the amount that can be charged as an “uplift fee,” and requires cost agreements to be in writing. Personal injury claims themselves — including motor vehicle, workplace, and public liability claims — are also governed by claim-specific Queensland legislation, such as the Personal Injuries Proceedings Act 2002 (Qld) and the Workers’ Compensation and Rehabilitation Act 2003 (Qld), which set the time limits and processes that apply to your claim.
Understanding both the fee regulation and the claim legislation is important — it’s what protects you from unfair costs and ensures your claim is lodged correctly and on time.

FREE CLAIMS CHECK TAKES 2 MINUTES No Win No Fee Lawyers Brisbane FAQs
Eligibility depends on the specific circumstances of your case — the type of injury, how it happened, who was at fault, and whether your claim falls within Queensland’s relevant time limits. We assess all of this during your free claim check and initial consultation, and we’ll tell you clearly and honestly whether we think your case has merit before you commit to anything.
A denial of liability at the start of a claim is very common and doesn’t mean your case is over. In Queensland compensation matters — including CTP claims, WorkCover claims, and public liability — insurers and defendants routinely dispute liability early in the process. Our job is to build the evidence that overcomes that denial: medical records, incident reports, witness statements, expert opinions, and more. We’ve resolved many claims that started with a flat denial.
Yes, in most cases you can. If you’re unhappy with your current representation — or were signed up on terms you’re unsure about — you have the right to change lawyers. We’ll review your current agreement and give you an honest picture of where things stand. If we take over your matter, we handle the transition, including any fee arrangement with your previous firm. Get in touch and let us see what we can do.
It varies depending on the complexity of your injuries, how liability is disputed, and which compensation scheme your claim falls under. As a general guide: straightforward motor vehicle (CTP) claims are often settled within 6–18 months; WorkCover and workers compensation claims typically take 12–24 months; public liability and complex injury claims can take 2–3 years if proceedings are required. We aim to resolve your claim as efficiently as possible without compromising your outcome, and we’ll give you a realistic timeline during your initial consultation.
If we don’t win your claim, you pay none of our legal fees — not a cent. There is one thing to be aware of: some claims involve necessary outlays (such as medical report fees or specialist assessment costs). Whether any outlays apply to your matter, and the likely amount, will be clearly set out in your No Win No Fee agreement before we start work. There are no surprises.
These are two different fee structures, and the distinction matters. No Win No Fee (conditional fee agreement): you pay nothing unless your case is won. If successful, our fees — typically 25–40% of your settlement — are deducted from your compensation. Under Queensland law, total legal costs can never exceed 50% of your settlement amount (the 50/50 rule), so you always walk away with at least half. Uplift fees: some law firms charge an additional loading — often up to 25% on top of their base fees — simply because they won a case. This is separate from the conditional fee and can significantly reduce what you receive. WT Law does not charge uplift fees. Our fee is the agreed percentage of your settlement, clearly stated in your agreement from day one. No loading, no extras, no surprises.
