Uninsured Loss Recovery (ulr) – Market Growth
Outsourcing has been the buzz word of the year with many insurers looking to reduce their staffing overheads while maintaining flexibility for unforeseen events such as the storms of last year. While in general the perception is that insurers delay claim settlement the opposite side of the coin is the Uninsured Loss Recovery (ULR) companies who must settle claims efficiently to ensure cash flow.
This new style of claim management has finally been recognised by the general insurers and when once the ULR industry was revered it is now being embraced as a new outsourcing consideration due to the efficiency of the claims handling.
Insurers have always ridden two horses regarding their IT; one for the liability and underwriting and one for the claims handling.
Andrew Harley, sales director for Legal Recovery Group plc (LRG) explained that, “our IT has only one function, to settle claims quickly and effectively for both the insurer and the insured. The systems are purpose written and obviously utilise the very latest paperless technology”
Legal Recovery Group plc (LRG) will create 75 new jobs in May when it moves to a new head office in Solihull. Andrew Harley, Sales Director, announced the move was required to acquire new staff and, to allow the firms claim handling capabilities to expand in line with the rapidly increasing sales of their legal expenses policies. LRG has quickly become the number three legal expenses insurer in the UK since Harley announced his revolutionary policies in 1996.

Car Insurance can anyone help please?
I am due to renew my car insurance i have just received my renewal quote, I am fully Comp and have Uninsured Loss Recovery.
My quote states that this does not include Legal Assistance.
Do l need legal Assistance lf l have fully comp insurance with ULR ?
I have looked on the web and ULR and Legal Assistance seem to be practically the same thing.
Any help would be appreciated, Thanks.
You posted to the USA board, but you’re using abbreviations not common to USA policies.
You will hvae to call your insurance agent and ask.
But, there’s no such thing as “fully comp”. There’s no “full coverage”. When you have “fully comp” or “full coverage”, that does NOT mean you are fully insured. You need to go line by line, down EACH coverage, and read your policy to see exactly what it means. Or ask your agent.
