0

Claims Bible is a website founded by former soldier Gavin Cooper that educates users on legal claims and helps to connect them to ‘no win no fee’ solicitors in their areas.

Cooper is a former soldier who started his website to help military personnel to make claims that they were entitled to. Within the first year, his website had returned over a million pounds to serving personnel. As his website increased in popularity, Cooper decided to start Claims Bible to help civilians as well. 

In UK courts, there were 63,000 cases claimed regarding money between April to June 2022. People claim money for a variety of reasons, and many win back thousands of pounds. In this article, we will explain how to start the process of making a claim.

How Does Claims Bible Work?

Claims Bible is a website that helps people in the UK to make claims.

It has a wealth of information regarding various types of legal claims, so people can enter the process informed. Then, Claims Bible connects clients to local ‘no win no fee’ solicitors who may defend their claim in court. 

How Do I Know if I’m Eligible to Make a Claim?

Claims Bible has easy online forms that can tell you whether or not you are eligible to make a claim. Within 24 hours, you will be informed whether or not you are eligible.

What Can I Claim For?

Claims Bible principally focuses on 3 types of claims:

  1. Financial claims
  2. Personal claims
  3. Property-related claims

Financial claims refer to the mis-selling of financial products. This is broad, and covers things from unaffordable legal fees to mis-sold catalogue credit. These cases are ones in which buyers were tricked or pressured into the purchase of products they could not afford or which had hidden fees. 

A personal claim provides compensation designed to compensate you for the effect that an accident had on your life, provided the accident was not your fault. This can include an injury that forces you to take time off work.

Property-related claims involve houses and cars. A housing disrepair claim, for example, is when a landlord fails to provide tenants with a safe home. A diesel claim also counts as a property-related claim, and applies to people whose car was affected by Dieselgate.

How Do ‘No Win No Fee’ Solicitors Work?

No money is charged upfront, and if the client loses their claim in court, they are not charged. However, if the claim is successful and the client wins back financial compensation, a fee is deducted from this amount. This fee depends on the amount won back.

Do I Need To Give Claims Bible Any Personal Details?

Visit Claims Bible to see if you are eligible to make a claim. They need some basic information, which is transferred to a solicitor. In order to evaluate whether your claim has a chance of being successful, some personal details are useful, such as your credit report, the name of your loan company, and bank statements. If you are missing any of these, Claims Bible might be able to request them for you.
