Legal indemnity insurance expert, Hugh Wodehouse, joins TLO Insurance
Date: 14/01/2009Hugh Wodehouse has joined the specialist independent indemnity insurance broker, TLO Insurance, as part of the team providing services to the legal community.
After qualifying as a barrister, Hugh joined Thomas R Miller, the leading managers of mutual insurance companies. For the last twelve years up to his retirement last year Hugh was chairman of the UK Division which involved management of the non-marine insurance companies including the Bar Mutual and SIMIA, the professional indemnity mutual for major solicitors.
In his last two years as Manager of the Bar Mutual Hugh played a leading role in widening the insurance provided to include cover for disciplinary proceedings.
Hugh Wodehouse commented, "Over the past ten years I have had an excellent working relationship with TLO as it built up its position as the leading provider of excess indemnity cover for members of the Bar, as well as professional indemnity brokers to a broad range of professions.
I was delighted to be asked to join the team providing services to the legal community as I strongly endorse TLO's philosophy that the role of the independent intermediary is not confined to the provision of insurance services but includes giving advice to clients across a whole range of issues.
I hope that my experience of managing both Bar Mutual and SIMIA from inception and, in particular my involvement in all the major claims, will prove of benefit to TLO's clients. I am very much looking forward to my new role."
