If you have attempted to claim against your insurer, you have almost certainly been left disappointed.
Has your insurer declined to pay out? We’re here to help you.
We will identify if you have a case. If you do, we will take steps on your behalf to recover the compensation you’re entitled to on a no-win, no fee basis.
Our expertise in commercial litigation positions us to secure the best possible outcome for your claim. Trust us to challenge your insurer.
Insurers are refusing to pay out on legitimate coronavirus insurance claims, leaving companies helpless. Is your business one of them?
Following the landmark Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) test case in the High Court, many businesses discovered their interruption policies could provide cover for COVID-19 losses. As experienced commercial litigation specialists, we’ve helped countless UK businesses understand their rights as policyholders.
Whoever your insurer is, we will guide you through the process of making a claim and will always fight your corner.

Do you have business interruption insurance?
If you have a BII policy and believe you may have a legitimate claim, get in touch to discuss your matter further.
After talking with you, we will review your insurance policy and schedule to make sure there’s nothing you’ve missed that would enable you to make a claim. We will conduct an assessment of your business interruption insurance policy to see if you are entitled to claim.
We will also conduct an in-depth review of your documentation and where necessary, any communication you may have had with your insurance broker or provider.
Whether your business interruption cover may apply depends on specific policy wording and circumstances. We provide comprehensive legal advice based on both the High Court rulings and subsequent developments in this area.
If we determine you have a claim against your insurer, we have the experience to quantify your losses and recover compensation on your behalf. There is a small fixed assessment fee of £199 + VAT if we consider your claim has prospects of success. If it does then we will offer to act for you on a no win no fee basis.
We will challenge the final decisions made by the insurer in relation to your claim and advise you on any offers to settle that you receive.
