Insurance Policy. Under the terms of your CFA, you do not bear any risk of paying any of our costs if you do not win your claim. If you win your claim, you are liable only to pay the success fee. However, win or lose, you are responsible for the payment of any disbursements that are incurred in the case and in some circumstances, even if you win (mainly if you fail to ‘beat’ a defendant’s offer to settle your claim), you can end up with a liability for some of the defendant’s costs. Insurance policies are available to protect you against this risk. Under these policies the insurer will usually reimburse you for any expenses if you do not win the case (the defendant will reimburse you if you win – see below) and will pay your opponent's solicitors' fees andexpenses if you end up with a liability to pay any because you fail to beat an offer made by the defendant. Penningtons Manches has an agreement with DAS to use an insurance policy which they provide for personal injury cases called DAS Law Assist. As such, we can issue you with an insurance policy without having to make an application to the insurer. The policies have agreed fixed premiums depending on the type of case. A further benefit is that the premiums are deferred and insured so if you win the premium is not payable until you have recovered damages and if you lose you will not have to pay the premium at all. Under our arrangement with the insurer we have agreed that all personal injury cases will be insured through this scheme. Because this spreads the risk for the insurer, it keeps the cost of the premiums down. It also means that we can issue your policy immediately on signing the CFA. This protects you against liability for any defendant’s costs and your expenses right from the outset of your case. We are required to tell you whether we have a financial interest in recommending this insurer and we confirm that we do not. However, we have agreed with DAS to only offer the LawAssist product for personal injury cases. We are aware of other after the event insurance products in the market and believe that the LawAssist product provides the = required protection at a competitive rate. We do not carry out a detailed analysis of the other products available. Our agreement to use this policy enables us to have the benefit of the delegated authority scheme to offer to our clients.
