You and your neighbours are failing to see eye to eye. Their new fence encroaching on your property is the last straw. You feel like you need to take legal action to settle this.

Legal access insurance is there to defend your rights. So, it’s important to understand its purpose and role. Let’s take a look!

What is legal access insurance?

Legal access insurance is annual, fixed‑cost coverage that is often tacked on to home or auto insurance. Coverage varies from one insurer to the next, so be sure to read the contract to see what’s included and what’s not. In general, legal access insurance covers five categories of risks:

  • At work (e.g. wrongful dismissal, discrimination on the grounds of age, religion)
  • Family disputes (e.g. mediation)
  • Consumer rights (e.g. breach of contract or warranty)
  • Bodily injury (e.g. medical malpractice, a fall)
  • Wills and protection mandates

When it comes to advice, we don’t skimp!

Even when your situation is not covered (e.g. a divorce), you can still reach out to our lawyers.

What is the exact purpose of this insurance?
