PROTECTING YOUR INTERESTS

Under the guidance of the National Insurance Brokers Association (NIBA) and the Corporations Act 2001, you can be assured that your best interests are the main concern for LEA Insurance Brokers.

Through ongoing professional education from the National Insurance Brokers Association (NIBA), We are up-to-date with the latest industry trends to provide you with quality advice.

We would like to draw your attention to our Privacy Policy, Financial Services Guide and Product Disclosure Statement information at the bottom of this page.  General Advice on this website has been prepared without taking into account your objectives, financial situation or needs.  Before acting on the advice, consider its appropriateness.

How We Can Help You - Making Life Easier

We have a dedicated claims team with years of experience to help you through what can be a difficult and traumatic experience.

In most cases personal property claims do not require a claim form, and advising us of the details is all that is required to lodge a claim.  For commercial claims however, this is not necessarily the case, and choosing the right claim form can be confusing which is why we facilitate this.

Advice, support and assistance throughout the entire claims process. Notify us so we can ensure your interests are protected every step of the way.

We ask that all claims are notified through our office so we are able to provide advice and assistance from the initial contact, monitor the progress of your claim and ensure your interests are being protected until the claim is finalised.
