LV= offers legal services facility

Published on

 LV= has launched LV= Legal Services; a new independent advice service in partnership with UK law firm Lyons Davidson, with the aim of providing practical and easy to understand legal advice at an agreed fixed rate.

The service is available for:

  • Wills
  • Power of Attorney
  • Probate
  • Conveyancing
  • Personal Injury
  • Employment Law.

LV= Legal Services will be accessible via an easy online quoting system, where consumers can enter their details and requirements, securing an upfront fixed quote for the legal service they require.

For anyone requiring more specialised advice on personal injury or employment queries, Lyons Davidson’s advisory teams will be on hand to provide more detailed support.

LV= says its service will provide an easy-to-understand ‘jargon buster’ on its website to ensure users can understand the, often complicated, legal terminology.

John O’Roarke, managing director at LV= General Insurance, said: “Most of us need expert legal help at some point in our lives and seeking that advice can sometimes be confusing, stressful and expensive. We want to offer a customer-friendly alternative to people at a price that’s right for them and backed by a brand they can trust.

“Together with Lyons Davidson, LV= Legal Services will offer a transparent and affordable solution for those with a genuine need for high quality legal service and want the security of knowing what their costs will be upfront.”

Mark Savill of Lyons Davidson said: “We look forward to working with LV= in this exciting development that will highlight the significant role that insurers can play in providing easy to understand, affordable customer-facing legal services.”
