Abbey Legal Protection is the oldest division of the group, providing focused delivery of commercial legal protection insurance on a business to business basis.

Abbey Legal Protection functions as an underwriting agent specialising in the legal sector, utilising a variety of distribution channels; the primary ones being insurance brokers, solicitors, accountants and affinity groups. It has a significant broker base and has recently launched a new key broker initiative to assist supporting brokers in a wide variety of ways. Abbey Legal Protection believes legal insurance is an exciting niche for brokers and affinity groups to exploit. The growth in people demanding access to justice is astounding, but without some form of funding the law is too expensive and the risks associated are often too great. Increasing regulation and legislation means it is difficult to keep abreast of change. Businesses often site "red tape" as one of the most concerning aspects of moving forward in business, yet only a small proportion of UK individuals and businesses are currently covered by legal insurance - the market has to develop.

Abbey Legal Protection has established a reputation for service and innovation. It is part of innovation. It is part of a profitable and creative group, making money for both its shareholders and underwriters. It has a wide product and service range capable of tailoring to suit specific niche markets. Abbey Legal Protection is looking forward to another successful year of new launches, new innovations and new partnerships - are you going to be one of them?
