Legal Expenses

If you are involved in a motor vehicle accident where the other driver is identifiable and is also at fault, our Motor Legal Expense policy will give you a stress-free service to recover your uninsured losses. This service will give full management of your claim from start to finish together with legal advice available 24 hours a day.

What’s included? + More information:

  • £100,000 protection for legal costs towards your vehicle damage following an accident caused by someone else.

Excess Protection

Excess Protection offers cover against having to pay an Excess on your motor insurance in the event of a Fault or unrecoverable claim.

What’s included? + More information:

Cover Excess up to £250.00

If a claim is deemed to be your fault you'll usually have to make an excess payment to make a claim under your Main Insurance Policy. Excess protection will ensure that the excess you have to pay is refunded in full up to your policy limit in the event of a fire, theft or vandalism claim or an accident that was deemed your fault. This means that the Motor Excess Protection Policy effectively works alongside your main Insurance policy often leaving you without any contribution to pay towards your claim.

Having a higher excess when buying Motor Insurance often signals to the insurer that in sharing a greater part of the risk you are likely to take better care to avoid a loss. This in turn could possibly reduce your overall premium.

Being involved in an accident with an uninsured driver may result in your excess being unrecoverable. Excess Protection Insurance could be used to redeem your excess in this scenario.
