Watchman Services

Watchman - The market leading unoccupied probate property insurance for UK solicitors Watchman is the specialist policy that provides cover for up to a year at a time, but you only pay for the exact number of days you need covered. A small deposit secures cover for a fixed daily rate that accumulates and is then settled when the property is sold/transferred or up to a year later. Our deferred premiums at Watchman help to reduce the pressure on your firm or your client’s funds while they are still trying to sell the property. With wide-standard, cost-effective cover, no cancellation fees, and deferred premiums, Watchman can help protect your client’s property whilst it remains unoccupied. We also offer cover for property unoccupied due to client in care or subject to legal capacity.
