Specific Conditions:Additional conditions applying to this section


1. (a) On receiving a claim, if legal representation is necessary, DAS will appoint a
Preferred Law Firm or in-house lawyer as the Appointed Representative
to deal with your claim. They will try to settle your claim by negotiation
without having to go to court.
(b) If the appointed Preferred Law Firm or DAS in-house lawyer cannot
negotiate settlement of your claim and it is necessary to go to court and
legal proceedings are issued or there is a conflict of interest, then you may
choose a law firm to act as your Appointed Representative.
(c) If you choose a law firm as the Appointed Representative who is not a
Preferred Law Firm, DAS will give your choice of law firm the opportunity
to act on the same terms as a Preferred Law Firm. However if they refuse
to act on this basis, the most DAS will pay is the amount DAS would have
paid if they had agreed to DAS Standard Terms of Appointment.
(d) The Appointed Representative must co-operate with DAS at all times and
must keep DAS up to date with the progress of the claim.
2. (a) You must co-operate fully with DAS and with the Appointed
Representative.
(b) You must give the Appointed Representative any instructions that DAS
ask you to.
3. (a) You must tell DAS if anyone offers to settle a claim. You must not negotiate
or agree to a settlement without DAS written consent.
(b) If you do not accept a reasonable offer to settle a claim, DAS may refuse to
pay any further Costs and Expenses.
(c) DAS may decide to pay you the reasonable value of your claim, instead of
starting or continuing legal action. In these circumstances you must allow
DAS to take over and pursue or settle any claim on your behalf. You must
also allow DAS to pursue at DAS own expense and for DAS own benefit,
any claim for compensation against any other person and you must give
DAS all the information and help DAS need to do so.
(d) Where a settlement is made on a without-costs basis DAS will decide what
proportion of that settlement will be regarded as Costs and Expenses and
payable to DAS.
4. (a) You must instruct the Appointed Representative to have costs
and expenses taxed, assessed or audited if DAS ask for this.
(b) You must take every step to recover Costs and Expenses and court
attendance that DAS have to pay and must pay DAS any amounts that are
recovered.
5. If the Appointed Representative refuses to continue acting for you with
good reason, or if you dismiss the Appointed Representative without good
reason, the cover DAS provides will end immediately, unless DAS agree to
the appointment of another Appointed Representative. If you settle or
withdraw a claim without DAS agreement, or do not give suitable instructions
to the Appointed Representative, DAS can withdraw cover and will be
entitled to reclaim from you any Costs and Expenses DAS have paid.
7. In respect of an appeal or the defence of an appeal, you must tell DAS within
the time limits allowed that you want to appeal. Before DAS pay the Costs
and Expenses for appeals, DAS must agree that reasonable prospects
exist.
8. For an enforcement of judgment to recover money and interest due to you
after a successful claim under this section, DAS must agree that Reasonable
Prospects exist, and where an award of damages is the only legal remedy to
a dispute and the cost of pursuing legal action is likely to be more than any
award of damages, the most DAS will pay in Costs and Expenses is the
value of the likely award.
9. If there is a disagreement between you and DAS about the handling of a
claim and it is not resolved through DAS internal complaints procedure, you
can contact the Financial Ombudsman Service for help. Alternatively there is
a separate arbitration process. The arbitrator will be a barrister chosen jointly
by you and DAS. If there is a disagreement over the choice of arbitrator, DAS
will ask the Chartered Institute of Arbitrators to decide.
10. DAS may require you to obtain, at your expense, an opinion on the merits of
the claim or proceedings or on a legal principle from a legal expert. The expert
must be approved in advance by DAS and the cost agreed in writing between
you and DAS. Subject to this, DAS will pay the cost of getting the opinion if
the experts opinion indicates that it is more likely than not that you will
recover damages (or obtain any other legal remedy that DAS have agreed to)
or make a successful defence.
11. You must:
(a) keep to the terms and conditions of this section
(b) take reasonable steps to avoid and prevent claims
(c) take reasonable steps to avoid incurring unnecessary costs
(d) send everything DAS ask for, in writing.

(f) give DAS any information DAS needs.
12. DAS will, at DAS discretion, void this section (make it invalid) from its start
date or from the date of claim, or alleged claim, or DAS will not pay the claim
if:
a) a claim you have made to obtain benefit under this section is fraudulent or
intentionally exaggerated, or
b) a false declaration or statement is made in support of a claim.
13. If any claim covered under this section is also covered by another policy, or
would have been covered if this section did not exist, DAS will only pay DAS
share of the claim even if the other insurer refuses the claim.
14. In the event of your death as a result of an Insured Incident the benefits of
this cover will attach to your personal representative (next of kin).
15. This section is governed by the law that applies in the part of the United
Kingdom, Channel Islands or Isle of Man where the insured person normally

Ireland, the Isle of Man and the Channel Islands as appropriate.
