Insurance: claims and refused cover. We review the policy and the refusal, quantify the loss with an expert report where needed and claim against the insurer and its customer ombudsman. We handle it ourselves from start to finish, with professionals from our network, with a written quote before we start and your case visible in your client area. We ask for the full policy, the claim report, the refusal and the invoices or estimates of the damage.
Insurers refuse on clauses the policyholder never read and sometimes on clauses that were never valid: a limiting clause not expressly accepted does not apply. The first step is reading the whole policy, not the refusal letter.
What it includes: analysis of the policy, its limiting clauses and the refusal; quantifying the loss and coordinating an expert report where appropriate; claim to the insurer, its complaints service and the regulator. What it does not include: it does not include the cost of your own expert, which is quoted separately, and does not guarantee the insurer accepts.
Full policy with general and particular conditions.
Claim notification and refusal letter.
Photographs, invoices and repair quotes.
We answer your enquiry within 1 working day and send the written quote within 2 working days.
Once your documents are complete, we prepare the file between 3 and 8 working days.
The insurer must pay the minimum it may owe within forty days of the claim notice and, to avoid late-payment interest, the full indemnity within three months; a complaint to the insurer itself and to the regulator (DGSFP) adds months before the court route.
See the pricing page for how we charge this kind of matter.
We read the policy, the limiting clauses and the insurer's letter, and tell you whether the refusal holds or not.
We ask for the full policy, the claim report, the refusal and the invoices or estimates of the damage. Retainer for the out-of-court stage; the success percentage is set out in the quote.
We quantify the damage, with an expert report if needed, and claim in writing from the insurer and its customer service department.
If it does not reply or maintains the refusal, we complain to the insurance regulator and tell you which court route remains.
Worth checking: the proportional rule is frequently misapplied. We review it against the policy.
Where the delay is unjustified, yes, and it is a high rate. We claim it where it applies.
