Benefits for Solicitors

These policies are designed to protect your Client for risks arising out of the transfer of assets, be that from the execution of a will or the sale of property. The policies operate on a “no fault” basis and therefore reduce the potential that a claim will be taken against the Solicitor when issues arise. This means that where your Clients purchase this policy there is a reduced potential for future professional indemnity claims arising from insured transactions. Purchase of these policies by clients is also consistent with a Solicitors duty to properly manage a Client's risk.

The Products

Typical risks include (amongst others):

  • Missing Beneficiary discovered after distribution of assets.
  • A new will is discovered which changes beneficiaries entitlements.
  • A Challenge against the validity of the will by someone who is not named.
  • A person claiming to be entitled to inherit from the Estate, by fraudulently identifying themselves as a Beneficiary, has been paid.
