A recent survey estimated that almost 17 million adults in the UK have legal expense insurance - many of them without being aware of it. This is because it is often included free or added to their:
Car insurance
House contents insurance
Buildings insurance
Travel insurance
Pet Insurance
Other insurance type policies
Sometimes it is added irrespective of whether the policy is held in their own name, or that of their partner or family.
Check to see if you have this cover. It might meet your legal costs in full.
Insurers may seek to refer your case to their own panel of solicitors. However, insured people have a legal right to choose their own solicitor in most cases. If you require assistance on this point, we can supply it.
