Whatever your business size or sector, when it comes to legal questions, it's often difficult to know where to turn for reliable professional advice and support. Not only is it costly but with all the paperwork that comes with addressing legal issues, it can start to take up crucial time that could be spent running your business.
That's why we have included a Legal Advice Helpline and Legal Documents Service with all our business insurance policies, to help keep you and your business on track.
Are you a Landlord? We also offer legal advice and many legal documents to help protect your rights too.
Whether you have a question on how to deal with a difficult client or what to do if a supplier fails to fulfil a contract, you'll be able to speak to a team of advisers who can provide confidential legal advice and guidance whenever you need it.
The legal documents service puts you in the driving seat when it comes to answering those legal questions that distract you from what you do best - running your business. That's why in addition to the 24/7 legal advice helpline, you'll also get access to a wide range of helpful guides, tools and video tutorials written by expert partners.
From employee contracts and health & safety policies to standard confidentiality agreements and data protection policies, this service allows you to access, draft and edit crucial legal documents, crafted by professionals that can be tailored to your business - without the cost of expensive legal fees.
