The UK government’s decision to cut back the money granted towards legal aid will severely affect many. The decision will also mean no free consultation to people seeking justice be it personal injury cases, property issues and more.
Personal injury and accident compensation claims on a no win no fee basis. Claim for Compensation after car accident, whiplash injury claims, accident at work compensation and all types of personal injuries.
The cost cutting measures being taken are the toughest in the past 60 years. The measures will help reduce the cost as well as the number of cases by 547,000 each year. The proposal also has put forward the removal of all the legal funding for personal injury, clinical carelessness and even no win no fee payment model for lawyers.
UK has the most expensive legal aid system in the world which adds up to a spent of £2 billion every year. The amount is huge and the government wants to save as much as possible on this. Many a times the free consultation given to people seeking justice is stretched for long and so is the court case. If the consultation will not be free and charged then the process will speed up. By this move around 38,000 people will not have access to free legal help in any form. This will badly hit the needy people who do not have funds to pay the fee of their lawyers as they are ones who seek the free consultations the most.
There are many law firms that provide free consultation initially to their clients, this helps them in marketing their services better. Many such firms may loose many of their clients. Some people are also of the opinion that the cuts will make it tough for the poor and the needy to seek justice.
