Arc Legal Group is an independent managing agent for ancillary insurance products and services.

We are not involved in the retail sale of insurance products, but act in a wholesale capacity providing our products and services to financial service retailers who in turn sell them onto their customers.

We manage ancillary insurance claims on behalf of a number of insurers. Our independence ensures that there is no conflict of interest in the way that we manage claims, and we work hard to deliver a first class and professional service.

We are not legal advisers and do not provide legal advice. Any legal services insured under our policies, or arranged by us, are provided by leading independent law firms.

If you wish to make a claim under your policy, please ensure that you have contacted the Legal Helpline for advice before completing your claim form. The Legal Helpline is available 24/7, the telephone number can be found in your policy wording. If you do not have access to the Legal Helpline under your policy, please refer to the section ‘How to make a claim’ within your policy wording.

You can complete and submit your claim form online, or upload documents using our secure document upload feature by visiting the section on the lef- hand side entitled ‘Submit Claim form & upload documents online’.

Please note wherever possible all claims correspondence will be sent by email.
