Legal Indemnities
Who we are
Our specialist legal indemnity underwriting team has over 150 years of collective experience in providing insurance solutions for title and contingency risks affecting all sectors of the UK property market.
We pride ourselves on transferring major risk from our insureds’ balance sheets to those of A-rated insurers with the financial security to bear the significant limits of indemnity committed to.
As Coverholders at Lloyd’s of London, we are underwriters exercising the authority to underwrite and issue policies – so when you talk to our underwriters you are dealing with decision makers.
Data is key and we draw on a range of open and closed source data points – as well as decades of proprietary underwriting data to support our risk assessment and pricing – crucially though, we see data as a tool to speed-up and inform decision-making rather than dictating it.
What we do
Delivering good customer outcomes is what drives our business and that extends to when claims arise.
Claims are our chance to work alongside our insured’s advisors and defend them from third-party action or proceedings. That is why we retain claims handling and litigation expertise in-house.
By working closely with market intermediaries, we create long-term partnerships which deliver for lawyers, insurance brokers and ultimately policy holders.
