our service for travel insurers

We advise travel insurers on all the legal issues protecting consumers covered by UK and European Union legislation as well as personal liability claims, personal injury, jurisdictional issues, and international conventions.

policy disputes

Our commercial approach in advising our insurance clients is particularly valuable in policy conflicts because we can give expert advice on the liability of insurers. Whether the issue concerns the duplication of cover, liability for a pre-existing medical condition, or a different matter, we will negotiate assertively in the interests of our client.

subrogated third party recoveries

Reimbursing an insurers outlay can make a significant difference to the insurers bottom line. We have developed a process that enables insurers to receive maximum reimbursement with the minimum of inconvenience. Blake Lapthorn has developed specific tailored schemes for such recovery which have proved very cost effective to insurers.

We are also able to claim all recoveries relevant to a travel claim.

The process we have developed enables us to obtain recoveries from:

• airlines
• household insurer
• private medical insurers
• European Health Insurance Card (Department of Work & Pensions)
• third parties where no LEI has been submitted 
• other insurers
