Policy Existence Request

A policy existence request is considered any search in which the insurance carrier is not provided by a law firm upon submitting a request form. These types of searches are the most difficult to perform, have a lower success rate, and are the most expensive cases to do. Similar to looking for a needle in a haystack it does take a while to perform these searches. We ask for 14 business days as opposed to our standard three to five business days on our regular policy searches. With that being said policy existence requests should be submitted as a last-ditch attempt to try to uncover policy that would apply to an ongoing case.

  • $150 Will be billed for all inconclusive reports.
  • A summary of the findings will be provided with all inconclusive results.
  • Policy found must offer coverage and be active on the date of loss.
  • No RUSH cases
  • Up to 14 business days processing time
