Getting started
Fee protection from 2020 Tax Protection is very simple to set up and administer. For many practices it takes as little as a day to complete. Most handle it themselves by writing to clients offering a service or insurance, collecting subscriptions, issuing confirmation documents, and then sending us a client list. Alternatively, if you’d prefer us to handle the administration and marketing, we can take care of this too.
Your dedicated team
We allocate a dedicated team to your practice, to ensure that your scheme fully meets your needs and runs efficiently and profitably for you. Your team includes an Area Manager to provide information on the right scheme, a Client Services Administrator to set it up and answer any questions and a personal Claims Consultant to handle all your claims.
Help with marketing
Drawing on our experience of proven client communications techniques, we can provide you with templates, leaflets and sample letters - as well as guidance on ways of marketing the scheme and improving take-up.
Advice lines
Both your practice and your subscribing clients have unlimited access to our 24 hour business legal helpline covering employment law, health & safety and commercial issues.
