Commercial Legal Expenses

Cases likely to affect farmers, estate owners and rural businesses can be quite different from the ones that urban-centric, off-the-peg insurance is designed for. Working alongside the CLA, we offer tailored policies that cover the actual issues you’re likely to face. 

One of the biggest misconceptions about Legal Expenses insurance is that it covers every feasible legal issue. Designing policies to fit your needs is paramount.
