It is important for the policyholder to know that very few insurers cover such disputes. For example, the following legal cases are involved:
- Maintenance payments to children or partners
- Denial of visiting rights
- Contesting testamentary provisions
- Disputes due to lack of regulations
- Divorce proceedings and marriage protection
Such disputes or all legal cases that fall under family, divorce and inheritance law are usually not covered. Accordingly, no attorney or litigation costs are borne, which can be very cost-intensive, especially in such disputes.
In order to insure yourself, depending on the legal protection insurer, it is possible to at least insure legal advice. Some insurers offer legal advice that must be provided to internal lawyers and is limited to a certain amount. For example, up to a maximum of 500 Swiss francs per year and per legal case can be claimed. It is important for policyholders in the event that legal disputes from family, divorce and inheritance law are included in the contract. Such restrictions are often found in insurance regulations. Ask your insurer if at least legal advice is possible, because in many cases there is a lot to achieve and other very high costs can be avoided.
