Frequently asked questions
Qu’est-ce que la protection juridique et comment m’aide-t-elle en justice ?
La protection juridique est une assurance qui prend en charge les frais d’avocat, d’expertise et de procédure en cas de litige. Elle est souvent incluse dans les contrats habitation ou auto. Elle permet d’accéder à la justice sans avancer les frais.
Combien coûte une action en justice sans protection juridique ?
Les frais peuvent varier de 1 000 à 10 000 € selon la complexité : honoraires d’avocat (150-300 €/h), frais d’huissier, d’expertise et de justice. La protection juridique couvre ces frais selon un plafond (ex: 10 000 € par litige).
Puis-je souscrire une protection juridique après un litige ?
Non, la protection juridique doit être souscrite avant la naissance du litige. Les assureurs excluent les sinistres en cours. Il est donc important d’anticiper.
Que faire si mon assurance refuse de prendre en charge mon litige ?
Vous pouvez contester le refus par lettre recommandée. Si le refus persiste, saisissez le médiateur de l’assurance. Un avocat peut vous aider à faire valoir vos droits.
Quels sont les délais pour obtenir une prise en charge ?
L’assurance doit répondre sous 15 jours à 1 mois. En cas d’urgence, vous pouvez avancer les frais et demander un remboursement ultérieur. Prévoyez un délai de 2 à 3 mois pour la mise en place.
