“legal cover”

written by StephenDM on 18/01/2016

SAVEYOUR MONEY. I was dismissed from work and tried to use legal cover, through direct line, for unfair dismissal. They rejected my claim to represent me through Employment Tribunal and I had to fund my own solicitor to the cost of over £7000. Direct line further dismissed my claim after contacting them and I proceeded with my own solicitor. I WON MY CASE and was awarded in excess of £20,000. I consider that Direct line should have covered my expenses especially as I had won. It has taken almost 2 years and they have still rejected my claim, despite frequent emails. They said that although I had a good/valid claim they did not consider I had more than 51% chance of winning (read the very small print) and therefore would not represent me. If their stipulation was on the merit of a claim being 51% Then I would suggest using a NO WIN NO FEE solicitor. SAVE YOUR MONEY
