AmTrust-owned Composite buys General Legal Protection
Composite Legal Expenses, a wholly owned subsidiary of AmTrust, has agreed to buy the business and assets of York-based firm General Legal Protection.
The company said that this strategic purchase is a part of Composite’s commitment to growth and positions the company as a "leading distributor of legal expenses insurance and assistance products in the UK".
Following the deal, General Legal Protection will continue to operate under its own brand and the team will remain in their office in York, led by branch manager André Scruton.
Matthew Williams, director of Composite, said: “We are delighted to welcome André and his team to Composite. Operating out of our offices in Cardiff and York, we are now well positioned to continue the sustained growth that Composite has enjoyed since it was acquired by AmTrust in 2015.”
Scruton added: “Moving our business to Composite provides us with an ideal platform to develop our business with the support and assistance that being part of a bigger organisation provides. I’m very excited about our future.”
