Why use Carlisle Legal Services

Having set up as a firm of Law Costs Draftsmen over ten years ago, we have been defending and challenging insurance products since they became recoverable from the losing party in 2000. We have been breaking them down into their constituent parts in order to justify the level of premium at detailed assessment, and worked alongside and against all the insurers. Our unique insight into the workings of such insurance, means we are best placed to not only advise you on the appropriate cover but to get the best deal from insurers for your clients.

Whether you need bulk provision of ATE products or bespoke services, give us a call and we will happily discuss the same with you.
