hi,can anyone tell me,when you have been offered an amount sum from a rda,as i was in a rda and i dont understand if the solicitors take out their fee out the amount they are going to award me,or if they do so before,many thanks for any anwers,

Fees are only paid by you if you lose. If you win, costs are awared to the losing side so you will not pay any fees.

do you mean a RTA? Yes they will,

[dothawkes31]

the solicitor still gets paid though and the costs are part of the award

[mike11111]

Should read - costs are awarded to the winning side, payable by the loser so you should not pay any fees
