* This legal expenses cover is a Belgian-law insurance product from AG SA, distributed by BNP Paribas Fortis SA. This complementary insurance is taken out jointly with third-party vehicle insurance. The policy is valid for 1 year, at the end of which it will be renewed by tacit agreement for the same period, except where it is cancelled at least three months before the renewal date. 
For a policy taken out or renewed by tacit agreement on or after 1 October 2024, you have until two months before the renewal date to cancel it.

** Providis is an independent entity of AG SA.

Legal expenses cover for your vehicle

Entrepreneurship involves taking calculated risks... for example, by ensuring you have the right expertise in the event of a dispute, legal matter or court appearance.

For legal matters like a prosecution for speeding, a poorly repaired car, an incorrect expert report or a third party who’s responsible for an accident but is refusing to pay damages, you can count on professional and independent advice. And if the matter can’t be settled out of court, your lawyer and the costs of legal proceedings are covered.

Extended legal protection

Get legal advice, protection against insolvency and cover for the cost of legal proceedings.

Costs of legal proceedings covered up to €50,000

In the event of a dispute or other legal matter, Providis** – AG’s specialist provider of legal expenses cover – advises you independently. And if necessary, the costs of legal proceedings are covered up to €50,000.

Insolvency protection up to €15,000

If your car is damaged after an accident, and the party responsible is insolvent, your legal expenses cover provides compensation of up to €15,000.

Advance on compensation

If the amount of compensation you will receive has been validated by the opposing party, but the payment has been delayed, it’s not a problem: your legal expenses cover will advance up to €20,000.

** Providis is an independent entity of AG SA.
