Important notice for landlord repossesions
We’re aware of the upcoming changes affecting landlord repossessions and the use of Section 21 notices. We want to reassure you about how these changes may impact your legal expenses cover.
If you have already served a Section 21 notice, or you serve one before 1 May, it may still be used under the current law. However, the notice must be assessed by us as having reasonable prospects of success. Where this applies, your claim will continue to be handled in line with the terms of your policy, even after the changes take effect.
