Some considerations
Waiting periods
A waiting period is the amount of time you must wait starting from the commencement date until some or all of your coverage comes into effect.
This time will vary based on the policy chosen and the area of law your matter pertains to. The standard waiting period for legal insurance is 3 to 6 months.
What is a deductible?
A deductible is the amount you have to pay once for every insured legal claim.
This deductible only applies for insured legal matter, so the inital phone consultations are always free.
The deductible usually starts at €300, but might be lower if you held legal insurance in Germany in the past 5 years. After the first claim is paid out, the deductible increases to €500, and reduces by €100 every claim-free insurance year. If your claim can be solved below €250 no deductible has to be paid.
Who else can be covered?
A spouse, registered partner or life partner that lives at the same address as you will be covered for €5 per month.
Children under 18 and children without permanent employment are generally automatically included.
Any parent that’s over 65, unemployed and living at the same address as you can be added to your policy for free.
