LEGAL INSURANCE FOR INDIVIDUALS

Do you want to assert your rights at a reasonable cost? Well, It’s possible! No one wants to get involved in a dispute. Think of a conflict between neighbors, family quarrels, a hidden defect, and the list goes on and on. Fortunately, it is often possible to settle such issues out of court. But when this is not possible, a dispute can be complicated, costly, and generate a lot of stress. This is when legal protection insurance can then become very useful.

General Questions

FAQ

Why purchase legal insurance?

In Quebec, the average hourly rates for lawyers hover between $210 and $450. You can imagine how easily legal fees can skyrocket. Since no one is immune from an unforeseen situation that will require the services of a legal professional, legal insurance can prove very useful.

How much does legal insurance cost in Canada?

On average, personal or family legal insurance will cost between $60 and $100 annually.

Is there a way to ensure that legal fees are covered by my legal insurance?

Ask your lawyer if he or she accepts to work for a flat rate. Set the flat rate according to the maximum amount your legal insurance will cover. You can also approach a lawyer who accepts a percentage of the settlement in lieu of fees, if he or she wins the case.

What is the difference between "legal insurance" and "legal assistance"?

Legal assistance is not insurance. Rather, it is a telephone service that allows you to consult with a lawyer or a notary to obtain legal information. This type of service is often available free of charge with the purchase of automobile or home insurance. Sometimes this service comes with a small annual premium.

What is covered by legal insurance?

Here’s what is not covered by legal insurance:

  • Any litigation in progress at the time you take out the insurance;
  • Typically, divorce, alimony or child custody disputes;
  • Litigation in criminal or penal matters.

While we’re on the subject of legal insurance, here are some additional important details:

  • A deductible may apply;
  • Insurance may reimburse only a portion of the costs;
