I always ensure I have full legal expenses cover..as if you dont have a cast iron case with witnesses, most insurance companies will go knock for knock , and blame can be apportioned unfairly. In all my claims my insurance company has never once fought my corner. Its ALWAYS been the lawyers who get the result for me.These have been proper solicitors not ambulance chasers, and all legal costs met in full by the policy..
My first claim was in 1976, a smidsy claim which was fought for me when my dad got legal expenses cover on his AA policy , and I got £1500 damages...thats about a years salary for me back then!!.
I wont disclose how much compo I have had since then but believe me , its mega compared to the legal policy outlay. I cannot stress enuff just how valuable this is...none of my compo has been obtained by my insurers...they dont give a damn.
