Our Insurance Products
Legal Expense Insurance (LEI) provides affordable coverage for the legal fees and expenses incurred by a lawyer for specified matters covered by the policy. Please browse our legal expense insurance products and contact us with any questions.
LEI for Corporations
Situations that can lead to legal action for small to medium-sized businesses are very common. Commercial legal expense insurance (CLEI) is designed for companies with annual gross sales of and/or receipts of $10,000,000 or less that do not typically have legal services on staff.
Given the high cost of retaining a lawyer, these companies are often put in a position where they have to choose between jeopardizing their financial bottom line by incurring heavy legal expenses, or risking financial difficulty, even bankruptcy and closure, by failing to have proper legal representation.
More than a policy, CLEI is a complete service that gives companies immediate access to a lawyer, selected from an expert panel, whenever they need it. CLEI covers matters NOT covered by commercial liability insurance.
There are various legal expense insurance products for small to medium sized businesses and corporations offering protection against civil and/or criminal matters in Canada.
