COVID-19: The emergence of defences on quantum

Life is changing for us all in the Covid-19 crisis, and as well as the immediately felt changes in our personal routines, we see what’s happening in the commercial world. In the insurance sector in particular there have been significant developments since our last update to you. As soon as the insurance implications became known…

An update on COVID-19 cases

It’s been a couple of weeks since we published our last news about the handling of Covid-19 cases. In those weeks many sectors of the insurance market have made their intentions clear, and those intentions are rarely encouraging for the insurance buyer. We are beginning to see the defences offered, frequently in the face of…

Our expert team is ready for your COVID-19 claims

It’s only a week or so since we set out our initial thoughts on claims resulting from the virus. In that time the government has introduced relief measures for various businesses, locked the country down and set out its suppression strategy. It has also been a hectic week for us at Thompson and Bryan. In…

New dedicated unit to focus on coronavirus claims

COVID-19 changes everything. It threatens individual lives, imperils the stability of the economy and has the most dramatic effect on commercial activity in generations. At Thompson and Bryan we have set up a dedicated unit to understand how we can best serve our broker friends and their policyholder clients. We have researched policy covers –…

Coronavirus and Business Interruption

The spread of the virus is beginning to affect every element of daily life and commercial activity. Many businesses will suffer from the precautions and impositions that will be put in place, and it’s fair to ask what help they could get from their business interruption insurers. It’s very difficult to generalise, as so much…

Whose expert should be used for subsidence?

Major building claims on homeowners’ policies recognise that the policyholder needs expert help in assessing and scoping the works needed, knowing which contractors can do them to the right standard, at the right price and on time, and ensuring that everything happens as it should. That service is paid for under the professional fees cover…

When is a payment due?

We have just resolved in our client’s favour a dispute centring on Part 4A of the Insurance Act 2015. That’s the section that gives a right of action should insurers unreasonably withhold payment. The wording of the relevant section is admirably and unambiguously clear: It is an implied term of every contract of insurance that…

Brexit and our clients

A small but important part of our business involves European-based interests. What we do, assisting in the administration of insurance contracts, is a regulated activity under the 2000 legislation that gave effect to a European directive on financial services requiring compliant legislation by each member state. Our authorisation by the Financial Conduct Authority, based on…

The ombudsman doesn’t always get it right

Our client has a holiday home overseas, insured with a UK insurer. The policy carries a very large five-figure excess for any damage caused by earthquake or volcanic eruption. The house was damaged by one of these over an extended period of time. The insurer applied multiple excesses, a severe reduction of the figure payable….
