Legal Indemnity
Why do clients need Legal Indemnity cover?
- The purpose of Legal Indemnity cover is to help offer protection against a number of issues around buying, developing, selling, leasing or owning property.
- Anyone who operates a business in the real estate industry may want to take out Legal Indemnity cover such as property owners, landowners and property developers.
- Issues can arise at any point during a property development or transaction, with some potentially taking months to investigate or resolve. Having the cover in place could help to protect against these issues delaying a sale, purchase or project.
