What does legal protection insurance cover?
Typically lawyers' fees, court and expert costs, and under many terms legal advice as well – within the areas of law and limits set out in the policy. The exact scope is set by the policy conditions – it is worth reviewing before requesting quotes.
Can I use it for a dispute that started earlier?
Legal protection covers disputes that arise after the policy starts, and typically has a waiting period as well. That is why it is worth taking out before trouble comes, not after – I assess and explain the details in plain words.
Should I buy it as a private person or as a business?
There are solutions for both: retail modules are built around family, traffic and consumer matters, business versions around contractual disputes, employment and authority proceedings. I assess where your real risk lies and we request quotes for that.
Can I choose my own lawyer?
Free choice of lawyer is a statutory right in court and administrative proceedings, and where a conflict of interest arises – insurers may differ in the cost frameworks. This is one of the criteria I show separately in the comparison table.
What should I do when a legal dispute arises?
The legal protection claim – reporting the legal case – is fastest through the insurer's own channel; I help you find your way. If the case stalls or cover is disputed, I help you with the insurer, where I can, as your broker.
