New commercial legal protection offering launched

Keychoice Underwriting has secured a new partnership with legal expenses insurer DAS.

DAS will provide Keychoice's brokers with access to comprehensive legal protection alongside the existing range of Keychoice commercial products.

DAS regional sales manager, Geoff Ashton, said: “DAS is delighted to have been chosen by Keychoice Underwriting as a strategic partner to provide commercial legal protection to their brokers.

"The importance of legal expenses insurance for businesses, large or small, has been brought into sharp focus over the last few years. The financial crisis has seen the need for business to have access to expert legal advice and assistance become a necessity. The costs of having a dispute, both in terms of monetary spend and also time, can have a significant impact on the well being of the business.”

Jonathan Davey, managing director of Keychoice Underwriting said: “Quality legal expenses cover has always been important for businesses and recent market research has highlighted that this is an area of increasing importance to SME businesses in particular as the economic climate remains uncertain."
