Beware "No win, no fee" doesn't mean "No win, no fee"

Signed up with them get compensation for the failed Woodford investment fund.
I was led to believe this was on a "No win, no fee" basis.
They failed to get compensation but still want a fee.

Left feeling let down and betrayed

I share my experience on here as my experience being a client of Leigh Day, Panagram was such that I would not want anyone to go through what I went through. The initial meeting was filled with promises and assurances that amounted to nothing. The service I received slow and second rate as I was handed a junior person who was away on leave for most of my case which meant that the solicitor in charge overall appeared to have little or no time for my case despite assuming me on numerous occasions that she was 'working very ' my case. I found her attitude unhelpful and short. After a long period of time where I thought and had been led to believe we would be going to court I felt that they bailed on me under the guise of considering the offer I had received was good enough. I felt as if they lost interest - were not on my side - did not fight my corner and when it came to actually doing the work and fighting for my physical and emotional wellbeing in an accident that had nothing to do with my doing anything wrong they gave up. I wish I had never started with them as I spent two years tip toeing in every conversation in the hope that when push came to shove they would come through which they said they would.

An exercise in futility.

After climbing from the wreckage, instructing Leigh Day is like plunging your hand into a blender. This appalling firm is simply not competent and not entirely professional. Proceed with extreme caution. The case started badly and over the following five years there were serious mistakes and failings including the failure to obtain a vital witness statement. This was followed by allegations of lying and dishonesty. The Americans would describes this firm as a 'Yard sale.' So imagine random and unwanted things carelessly strewn about in a disorganised and badly managed manner and you will have an idea of what to expect.

Vehicle emission claim

Complete waste of time, no one responds and if they do then no one has taken the time to read your emails properly. I certainly would not use this company again for anything after the poor service i have recieved. Have now gone to another law firm that is acting on my behalf and delivering a professional service.

Poor service. I provided details of my case, only to be told later that they had no capacity to assist me. This could have been communicated upfront. Very disappointing experience. I will be sure to inform others about this lack of transparency.

Very bad service clearly they don’t deal with medical negligence. I told them everything about the way nhs treated my husband. And now he has suffered a severe heart attack due to medical negligence because the gp referred him as an urgent appointment but the hospital classed it as non urgent. After his heart attack 4 years ago he’s not had 1 appointment with the cardiologist. That is medical negligence and now he has heart failure he’s just physically and mentally drained after this heart attack should have been checked by a doctor and had a planned stent in place.he wouldn’t be suffering so much now his heart is gone weak the muscle is damaged due to heart attack.
