The internet is an integral part of our lives. We go shopping and seek services online, meet friends on virtual platforms, download information and media content. These everyday activities naturally increase the risk of getting into disputes online and becoming a victim of cyber bullying or identity theft. Our Web Legal Expense product helps to protect you and your family from certain legal costs of damage caused online.

Policyholder S purchased new sneakers advertised on a website believing they were genuine but instead received poor quality replicas. S tried to return the goods and asked for her money back but no one returned her calls or emails. ARAG appointed a lawyer for Policyholder S who helped him to challenge the contract and obtain a full refund of the amount paid for the goods.
The identity of Policyholder M was stolen and used to register a motor vehicle in M’s name. M started receiving parking and speed camera fines and tried to explain the vehicle wasn’t his. M’s licence was cancelled for non-payment of the fines. Then M received a letter from a lawyer seeking compensation for a person injured in a motor vehicle where the vehicle had no CTP insurance. M was distressed and no one was listening. M thought he would have to pay thousands of dollars and would be liable for the personal injury claim. ARAG appointed a lawyer for Policyholder M who helped him to challenge the fines, clear up the false registration, vehicle, reinstate his licence and defeat the personal injury claim.
