Legal disputes can be unexpected and complex!

Some examples of legal expense costs insured are:

• Landlord-tenant disputes – for example disputes arising over the terms of the lease and alleged breaches arising from it.
• ATO (Australian Taxation Office) Investigations or audits

• Commercial Contract Disputes with contracts or customers
• Assistance with debt collection – the policy will provide support for the Insured to wield pressure in recovering the sums due, and eventually take matters to court if this fails to bring the desired outcome.
• Statutory license protection – Legal Expenses incurred in an appeal by You against the suspension, revocation, imposed alteration of, or refusal to renew a Statutory Licence.
• Restrictive Covenant Pursuit (protecting a client’s intellectual property) – When an employee leaves a business, it is essential that they are not able to take client information to a new employer and this cover ensures that where a restrictive covenant prevents them from doing so is written into their employment contract, legal assistance is on hand to lessen the damage caused.

Cover can be dependant on the level of cover chosen. 

Your policy may also include cover for a “legal information helpline” for immediate legal advice and support and a “document centre” which contains a broad range of contract templates and guides ranging from employment contracts, to rental agreements, and wills.

The total premium payable will depend on a number of factors including the amount/ level of cover you choose and your individual circumstances.
