Arc Legal adds new cover to motor legal protection product

Arc Legal Assistance has responded to escalating concerns over the impact of ‘car cloning’ by developing cover for vehicle ID theft as part of its Motor Legal Protection (MLP) product.

Arc Legal director Richard Finan, said: “Recent reports suggest that vehicles worth £13m have already been of cloned as result of the log books theft. Legitimate vehicle owners face unnecessary costs, fines and even prosecutions if their cloned vehicle is involved criminal or motoring offences.

"Our new cover offers direct help to these innocent motorists."

Arc Legal’s cover will provide policyholders with cover for legal and representative costs to defend prosecutions such as speeding or other traffic offences, as a result of their car being cloned.

Bluefin have become the first broker to include Arc Legal’s Vehicle ID Theft cover. This follows their appointment of WNS Assistance to provide motor claims assistance services.
