Additional cover
Motor Legal Protection
Legal Expenses insurance element underwritten by AmTrust Europe Ltd
Administered by ACM ULR Limited
Road accidents happen every day. Aside from the shock, upset and inconvenience, they can lead to unexpected costs and have more serious consequences. Damage to items inside the vehicle, injury to you or your passengers, and even death of the driver or passengers can all result in an unmanageable financial burden. If these events were caused by someone else’s negligence then you may need to take them to court to obtain compensation. Court action is costly, particularly if you want a professional to represent you, and that’s where Motor Legal Protection comes in.
For £25.99 a year, our Motor Legal Protection cover provides the following benefits;
- Up to £100,000 motor legal expenses cover – including professional legal fees and costs.
- Can be used to claim compensation for personal injury, death, damage to your vehicle or items in the vehicle not covered by your motor insurance.
- 24 hour emergency claims line, 365 days a year.
The policy comes with other benefits too, so please check out the policy document for full details. Terms and conditions apply to all benefits. Claims are subject to assessment by a legal professional and must, in their view, have a reasonable chance of success and not cost more to recover the loss than the amount of the loss itself.
