RHA LawPlan - Legal Protection Insurance

Add a solicitor to your RHA membership

Having RHA LawPlan means a specialist transport or employment solicitor can be by your side from Day One of a valid claim in connection with your haulage business.

Employment disputes, vehicle-related prosecutions and public inquiries are all too common for hauliers and going to court can be worrying, expensive and potentially disastrous.

RHA LawPlan is sold exclusively to RHA members and is tailored to their needs. Having RHA LawPlan also means that legal advice regarding any business-related matter is available from Lawphone the legal advice helpline 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

"The solicitor recommended to us dealt with our overloading offence very professionally and quickly. Our drivers were interviewed at our depot and at a convenient time to suit us. We achieved good results when attending court and would recommend RHA LawPlan to all RHA members, a scheme we have been in for 30 years and well worth the money."
