Bespoke Legal Expenses insurance
Legal expenses insurance provides cover for the costs of

Online Care- Specific HR Management tool- CybHR
As part of the legal expenses cover you will receive, at no extra
cost, CybHR, an online care-specific HR management tool.
CybHR will help protect you from the risk of potentially lengthy
and costly litigation by giving you access to all the latest
information, with proactive updates on best practice guidelines,
legislation and case precedents.
Claims Assist:
When disaster strikes, a quick and effective response can be vital
to keep a care home in business; large losses call for hands-on
assistance. Every year businesses witness devastating losses
caused by flood, fire and malicious acts. These claims can be
complex and our claims service, included as standard in our Care
Concept policy, provides a chartered loss adjuster to work with
you. This ensures that the entire process is handled quickly,
fairly and without unnecessary stress.
Additional Services Available:
In addition to offering bespoke care insurance packages, we have
added new products and service to enable you to run your business
more effectively and compliantly.
Expert Risk Management Service- Insurance and risk management
should go hand-in-hand- whilst a correctly arranged insurance
programme will transfer certain financial exposures for the
business, it does not deal with the tangible risks that need to be
managed or removed to achieve an efficient, profitable and
compliant business.
To help you run a compliant and efficient business, reduce injury
claims and employment tribunals, help to defend against claims,
and long-term cost saving and peace of mind.
Expert Valuation Service- Towergate Patrick has teamed up with
leading valuation surveyor, Gleeds Durden, to provide a
professional valuation service at a discounted rate. The service
is designed to provide complete confidence in your building sums
insured and guard against the impact of under-insurance in the
event of a loss.
To avoid under-insurance penalties in the event of a claim, to
reduce interruption to your business by accelerating the claims
payment process and valuations are undertaken by experienced
chartered surveyors.

We believe in offering our customers a breadth of service which,
in itself, makes us invaluable advisors to both you and your
business. Towergate Financial offers independent financial advice
