- Fees in United Kingdom
- Conditional fee agreements (CFAs, "no win no fee" with a success fee) and damages-based agreements (DBAs, a percentage of damages) are both permitted in England & Wales, subject to statutory caps, for example tighter caps for personal injury claims. After-the-event insurance is commonly used to cover the other side's costs.
