Insurance sector specialist Fenchurch Law has launched a claims advocacy service for brokers and opened a new office in Leeds.

The advocacy service provides brokers and their clients with access to experienced and qualified professional support, advice and assistance on claims-related issues for a fixed monthly fee. The service complements the firm’s legal services in claims and wordings disputes.

The legal firm said the service would give smaller brokers access to the same specialist claims advocacy expertise that their larger competitors offered clients.

The service is led by Phil Taylor who has joined Fenchurch Law after 15 years as regional claims director at Jelf – now Marsh Commercial.

David Pryce, Fenchurch Law’s managing partner, said: “The launch of our advocacy service builds on the valuable legal support we offer brokers and their clients in claims disputes. In attracting Phil to the team, we can now offer brokers strong, multidisciplinary claims support covering legal and non-legal issues. Many brokers are unable to access the wider claims services that the larger national brokers deliver to their clients.”

The new office in Leeds is headed by senior associate Daniel Robin. It will enable the firm to offer improved support to brokers in the North of England.
