FAQ - Potential Claims Scenarios

Contract Dispute – with a customer

A business owner agreed to handle some goods for a new customer. The usual warehousing standards and shipment tracking were in place and the goods were delivered on time in good condition. However, the customer failed to make payment and refused to pay despite many reminders were sent as she claimed the goods were delivered in poor condition. Luckily, he kept all the evidence to prove that the customer acknowledged the goods were delivered in good condition and he demanded that the customer to make full payment or legal action would follow. 

The invoice remained unpaid, however the business owner used the policy and managed to get himself covered by the Legal Shield Insurance for RM 51,000 of legal cost incurred in pursing the customer and enforcing the contract in court.
