What is LEI?

Legal expense insurance enables individuals, families or businesses to protect themselves from the legal costs and expenses of some common legal problems. It provides affordable access to legal advice and representation in courts and tribunals when individuals or businesses are faced with unforeseen legal issues that might otherwise be deterred from exercising their legal rights due to the substantial costs involved.

Our policies cover the gaps that other insurances leave open. ARAG’s Legal Expense Insurance products help you access the legal system to defend or pursue your legal rights. By covering legal expenses our policy relieves some of the financial pressure whilst covering the gaps where other insurances only cover damages. Plus, with an ARAG Legal expense insurance policy you have the ability to both DEFEND and PURSUE your legal rights.

If legal action is necessary, ARAG's legal expense insurance products are there to cover some of the legal costs that come with the pursuit or defence of your rights.

Our policies are a ‘Before-the-event’ cover, meaning the policy will need to be in place before you need it.
