Recent claim case studies and stories – 4 things you should read
At Protection Guru we believe there is no more powerful a demonstration of the value and importance of protection insurance, than the real life claim case studies shared with us by insurers and advisers. In today’s ‘4 things you should read’ we bring you a round up of some recent examples shared with us and which have been posted previously on the Protection Guru website.
We would encourage all advisers to take the time to watch these and share them with their colleagues, especially those that are perhaps not yet convinced that protection insurance is something they need to discuss with their clients. We would also encourage sharing them with clients, and whilst this should be done with care and in a tactful way, not simply as a way of trying to guilt the client into purchasing cover, they can be a useful way of highlighting that policies do pay-out and when they do, it can make a life changing difference.
