Our After the Event Insurance policies have always provided lawyers and their clients with the confidence and knowledge that they are being supported by a company with a strong sense of purpose, commitment and integrity.

Templeton’s team is totally committed to delivering ATE policies that fit the requirements of a growing legal practice. Although new legislation in April 2013 in relation to recoverability of ATE premiums and the way in which civil litigation costs are funded changed the landscape for ATE insurance we are still able to provide ATE insurance policies for key areas of dispute.

Templeton has grown mainly by existing customers referring other solicitors to us. This is the biggest endorsement to how we support and work with our customers.

Flexible and Fair Underwriting Policy

Templeton delivers flexible and versatile policies because we understand that, in this modern era, all solicitors are different. Templeton continue to innovate in this area and we are constantly developing new products to adapt to an evolving marketplace, ensuring that the changing requirements of you and your clients continue to be met. We work with you to obtain the best result that you need for your client.

Policy Applications and Reporting

Because we understand that it is important to align with your business leaving you time and resources to fully focus on your client and their claim, we are capable of accepting most forms of policy application input and reporting, provided that the minimum information we ask for is made available to us. We can design a bespoke solution for your business to allow for a streamlined integration between our businesses. We believe in leaving you alone as much as require you to report to us at certain key milestones in a case, or where it will fundamentally change the facts of a case.

Working with you for your client

Whether you work in the corporate or private sector, Templeton has a portfolio of After the Event insurance products that will give your client the confidence to pursue their claim without the risk of financial loss covering both opponents costs and disbursements.

We are passionate about the market we work in, the products we supply and the clients we deal with. At Templeton we strive to develop long standing, professional relationships and we always strive to provide exceptional customer service to all our clients.
