What’s the Process for Making a Scam Claim With a Solicitor ?

The process of our solicitors working on a scam claim begins with an initial consultation where the solicitor reviews the case details and available evidence. Once instructed, the solicitor gathers further documentation, contacts relevant financial institutions, and prepares the legal claim.

In many cases, claims are first pursued through negotiations with banks or regulators before escalating to court if necessary. Throughout the process, clients receive progress updates and strategic advice tailored to their specific situation.

Costs are primarily influenced by whether you require a fixed-fee consultation (£100–£300), ongoing hourly representation (£150–£350 per hour), or a no-win, no-fee arrangement for higher-value cases where payment is only due if the claim succeeds.

Can Solicitors Help Recover Money Lost to Online and Investment Scams?

Solicitors dealing with scam claims are increasingly focused on online and investment scam recovery, as these are among the most common frauds affecting UK residents.

They work to trace payments, challenge banks that failed to stop suspicious transactions, and pursue negligent platforms that enabled fraudulent activity. Even when scammers operate internationally, legal action and cross-border collaboration can often help recover funds or secure redress from regulated financial institutions.

Which Types of Scams Can Be Pursued for Compensation?

Scam claims handle a wide range of fraud cases, including:

• Investment scams – Fraudulent investment schemes promising unrealistic returns.

• Banking fraud – Unauthorised transactions or banks failing to prevent suspicious activity.

• Online purchase scams – Fake websites, counterfeit goods, or non-delivery of products.

• Crypto fraud – Cryptocurrency scams, rug pulls, or unregulated trading platforms.

• Pension mis-selling – Misleading advice leading to unsuitable or high-risk pension transfers.

• Forex trading schemes – Unregulated or deceptive foreign exchange investment offers.

• Romance scams – Fraudsters exploiting personal relationships to obtain money.

• Inheritance fraud – False claims of entitlement to estates or assets.

• Fake loan providers – Advance-fee fraud involving non-existent or predatory lenders.

How Do Lawyers Handle Banking, Forex, and Crypto Scam Claims?

Solicitors adopt tailored approaches depending on the type of scam claims. For banking fraud, they may hold the bank accountable under the Authorised Push Payment (APP) regulations. In Forex scams, solicitors investigate whether trading platforms were properly regulated and whether misrepresentation occurred.

In crypto scam cases, solicitors focus on tracing blockchain transactions, holding exchanges accountable for failing to prevent fraud, or pursuing third parties connected to the scam.

Are No Win, No Fee Options Available for Scam Claim Cases?

Our panel of scam claim solicitors provide no-win, no-fee funding options, particularly for cases involving large financial losses. This arrangement allows victims to pursue claims without the risk of paying large solicitors' fees upfront; however, other legal charges may still apply.

Instead, fees are recovered as a percentage of compensation awarded if the claim succeeds. This makes legal support accessible to more victims, regardless of financial position.

What Evidence Do Scam Claim Solicitors Need to Start a Case?

To begin a scam claim, our solicitors usually require:

• Payment records – Proof of transactions showing where money was sent.

• Bank statements – Evidence of withdrawals, transfers, or suspicious activity.

• Correspondence with the fraudster – Emails, messages, or call records.

• Contracts or agreements – Any documents provided to support the fraudulent scheme.

• Promotional material – Adverts, brochures, or online content used to mislead victims.

• Recovery attempts – Copies of complaints or communications with banks and regulators.

Do Scam Claims Work With Both Individuals and Businesses?

Scam Claims support both private individuals and businesses who have suffered losses.

Individuals may have lost money through personal investments, online scams, or misleading financial advice, while businesses may be defrauded through supplier scams, cybercrime, or fraudulent contracts.

Solicitors adapt their strategy depending on the client’s circumstances, the financial losses involved, and the parties responsible for the fraud.
