Arc appointed by CCV LAS; Groupama to underwrite

Arc Legal Assistance has been appointed by CCV Letting Agents Solutions, part of Cullum Capital Ventures, to provide landlords legal and rent guarantee protection claims handling services following CCV LAS’s launch into this growing market.

Arc Legal will receive claim notifications and handle all claims through to settlement. This process involves instructing and managing solicitors and other agents to recover possession of properties and making rental guarantee payments.

The insurance is underwritten by Groupama Insurances, who have reviewed and approved Arc Legal’s claims handling processes.

Richard Finan, director of Arc, said: “Launching an effective buy-to-let business in the current economic climate requires an efficient and responsive claims service which matches landlord’s needs. Our business model and experience within this sector means we are confident that the service we provide CCV LAS’s landlords does just that.”

Victoria Hotchkin, managing director, CCV, said: “We needed an experienced and well regarded team to support our plans. Arc’s reputation for providing a high quality of service backed by their experience in this area made them a natural choice.”
