Employment law legal expenses cover and legal indemnity

We at NorthgateArinso are one of the leaders for employment services in the UK.

We offer advice on employment law, legal expenses cover and legal indemnity, and that’s just for starters.

Protection against employment tribunals

We provide legal expenses insurance to underpin our complete package of employment law and health and safety advice, and our specific legal insurance will cover you for legal indemnity in the event of employee tribunals. Should you find yourself in the middle of an employment tribunal or HSE prosecution, our legal expenses insurance will help with your legal expenses cover and can give you valuable peace of mind.

Your legal expenses cover, which is provided when you take out our legal indemnity insurance, will cover you as long as you follow all of our employment law advice pertaining to your case. Other ways to ensure that your legal expenses will be fully covered is to make sure that you always disclose all issues, circumstances and situations that surround the case being dealt with.

If you’ve taken our advice then you’ll be completely covered in the case of legal expenses for representation, document preparation and case management as provided by NorthgateArinso Employer Services.

The insurance we can provide you with will also cover you for all compensation on your legal expenses which covers discrimination, dismissal and redundancy.

In terms of the expenses you have to cover for a redundancy package, our insurance does not cover the payments agreed upon in the employee’s contract or statute – redundancy payments are a pre-arranged contractual obligation and therefore insurance will not provide such legal expenses cover.

Underwritten legal expenses insurance

Our legal expenses insurance is underwritten by a completely independent company called Brit Insurance Ltd. They’re one of the largest legal insurance providers around and are able to provide indemnity cover for all legal expenses.

NorthgateArinso have been using Brit Insurance Ltd for many years because they bring expertise and stability with their insurance policies, meaning that you can get cover with one of the best legal insurance products in the market. Legal expenses cover is simply too important to allow non-experts to handle, so always go for the specialists.

Why do I need legal insurance?

Having legal indemnity and insurance is imperative if you own a company employing between 3 and 300 employees. Legal expenses need to be covered to protect you and your business from expensive litigation in the event that one of your employees raises a tribunal claim against you – you’ll need legal insurance and indemnity to cover the costs of any expenses.

Summary of our Legal Expenses Insurance

What is it: It’s the protection you need against expensive litigation when your employees raise an employment tribunal claim against your business or organisation.

Our legal expenses insurance covers the cost of the following (subject to policy conditions):

  • Legal Representation
  • Case Management
  • Document Preparation
  • Onsite visits for case preparation (if and when required)
  • Any compensatory settlements or awards made against you

You have the satisfaction of being protected by one of the country's largest commercial insurers, as well as the confidence of being with an insurer that’s regulated by the Financial Services Authority (FSA).

So, here at NorthgateArinso we’ll be able to provide you with some of the best legal indemnity and legal insurance cover in the industry. We can help with advice on the best course of action in tribunal situations ensuring that you’re not hit with sudden legal expenses which could prove financially damaging, so never be left in the hands of non-professionals – make sure to contact NorthgateArinso today for all of your employment law and insurance needs.
