Family Legal Expenses | Financial & Legal

What is Family Legal Expenses Insurance?

Family legal expenses insurance provides protection for a family for any legal disputes that arise. A successful claim will pay the legal costs to pursue and defend legal proceedings and any opponents’ legal costs. The policy also includes a 24-hour legal helpline to provide advice.

What do we cover?

We can cover one or all of the following under one policy:

Employment disputes
Contract disputes
Property disputes
Legal defence
Personal injury
Professional negligence
Home buyer disputes
Probate disputes
Tax disputes
School admission disputes

Points to consider

Family legal expenses insurance provides protection from legal costs when a dispute arises. If a dispute arises with a neighbour or with an employer knowing that a solicitors’ costs are covered is a comfort.

Legal costs can quickly spiral out of control, with no certainty that these costs can be recovered even if your customer wins their case. This policy ensures access to justice is not denied for those with a genuine case in return for the payment of a relatively modest premium.

Policies are sold on an optional or stand-alone basis or can be included as part of home insurance.

True Solicitors

“Having been with a larger insurer we seemed to have become stagnant in waiting for decisions and also experienced a lack of innovation. The Financial and Legal team and their personal approach means we can now sell products with the confidence that we are providing our clients with maximum security and protection.”
