About Legal & General

Legal & General is one of the UK 's most well known insurance providers. It has a long history which can be dated back to the 1800's when it was founded by a group of lawyers and one policy worth £1,000. After a number of acquisitions and changes in the company after the war by the end of the 1950's its asset value was over £1 billion.

After further growth and restructuring, the company introduced index linked policies and established itself as a public limited company during the 1970's.

During the 1990's it instigated joint ventures with various Building Society's to provide their customers with a range of household, buildings and contents policies. Legal and General continue to make more of these alliances to this day.They launched their web site in 1997 and as sole supplier of General Insurance products to Bank of Ireland mortgage customers.

In 2005 it was awarded 'Best Life Assurance Provider' by Professional Advisers Awards and also awarded 'Best Service Provider' by LifeSearch Protection Awards.
