Car insurance

Car insurance

Motor vehicle liability insurance is (for vehicles) the legally mandatory part of the German car insurance (compulsory insurance), which covers the claims for damages that arise from the operation of a motor vehicle towards a third party (fault or liability).  

The damage can be caused, for example, by a traffic accident, for which the permitted driver of a motor vehicle is at fault or for whose consequences. The holder / owner of the vehicle is responsible regardless of fault. Motor vehicle liability insurance law is largely standardized in the European Union, but the legally stipulated maximum compensation amounts and the assumption of certain costs, for example for rental cars or experts, still differ considerably in the EU countries. The sum insured describes the maximum indemnity payment from motor vehicle liability insurance or car insurance. 

Penal & Law insurance

Disputes in various areas, which are resolved with legal assistance and ultimately often before the judge, are not uncommon. The financial burden of litigation should not be underestimated, because the amount in dispute can be high and drag on until a final judgment has been reached. Until then, the costs are only in advance. This legal protection insurance can also be used against insurance companies that refuse to payout claim payments or other contractual agreements. 

The risk of getting into a legal dispute has become quite high these days. Dealing with customers, suppliers but also with social insurance institutions, other organizations and authorities can lead to legal disputes and these are sometimes associated with high costs and trouble.

Residential property insurance

Residential property insurance

When do you need residential property insurance? 

If you own an apartment, house, or other habitable property as an owner or if you are building such a property. 

Why is the correct valuation of residential property insurance so important? 

There are various models for determining the value of residential property insurance, but it is crucial that all information is correct while application. Here, attention should be paid to the number of square meters of living space, the type of class of the building, type of versions of the equipment (high-quality sanitary facilities, doors, windows, floors, etc.), number of garages, carports, solar or other installations. 

When do you lose coverage of the Home / residential property insurance? 

If this is missing, or if only 120m² is specified instead of 150m² of living space, the insurer can significantly reduce the claim payment or, in the worst case, appeal against the contract and withhold the premium already paid and refuse to pay the claim. 

That is why it is important not to save money at the wrong area, but rather to look for an insurer who offers coverage at an acceptable price with customer favorable terms & conditions. 

Professional liability insurance

Professional liability insurance can be mandatory 

For some professional groups, professional liability insurance is even compulsory. Namely for those whose work relates to the assets of third parties. Examples include: Lawyers, tax consultants, notaries, insurance intermediaries, engineers, architects, pension consultants and auditors. 

People with medical and teaching professions, such as Doctors, physiotherapists, physiotherapists, naturopaths and teachers must have professional liability insurance in order to be able to work at all. Medical liability and hospital liability insurance belong to these compulsory insurances, without which an approval for the activity is not possible. 

Some contractors – larger companies, for example – also require other service providers, such as consultants, to provide proof of professional liability insurance. A good idea, because if you advise a corporation incorrectly as a freelancer, this can result in dizzying amounts of claims payments.
