USE CASE SCENARIOS
🏠 HOME INSURANCE
Understanding What Your Home Policy Actually Covers
THE SITUATION:
You’ve bought home insurance — buildings, contents, or both. The certificate of insurance looks fine. But the full policy document is 60+ pages of dense legal language. What exactly is covered for flood damage? Is your garden shed included? What about accidental damage to your laptop? What’s the claims excess, and is there a separate excess for subsidence? You won’t know until you read it — or upload it to Binding Docs.
HOW BINDING DOCS HELPS:
Lewiz analyses your home insurance policy clause by clause. It identifies exactly what’s covered, what’s excluded, your excess amounts for different claim types, coverage limits per category, and conditions you must meet to keep coverage valid (like locking doors or maintaining alarms). Lewiz highlights gaps where you might need additional cover.
DOCUMENTS YOU CAN CREATE OR REVIEW:

✓ Home contents insurance policy review

🤖 Compare your policy against standard market coverage levels
🚗 MOTOR INSURANCE
Know Your Cover Before an Accident Happens
THE SITUATION:
You’ve renewed your car insurance online. The comparison site showed the price — but did you check the policy document? What’s your voluntary excess on top of the compulsory excess? Are you covered for driving other cars? What about modifications? Business use? Is your dashcam footage admissible as evidence? Most drivers only read their motor policy after an accident — when it’s too late to change anything.
HOW BINDING DOCS HELPS:
Lewiz reviews your motor insurance policy and highlights exactly what you’re covered for: comprehensive, third-party fire & theft, or third-party only.

❤️ LIFE & PROTECTION INSURANCE
Ensuring Your Family Is Actually Protected
THE SITUATION:
You’ve taken out life insurance, critical illness cover, or income protection. You’re paying premiums every month. But do you actually know what triggers a payout? Life insurance seems straightforward — but exclusion clauses for pre-existing conditions, lifestyle disclosures, suicide clauses, and policy lapsing rules can mean your family receives nothing when they need it most.
HOW BINDING DOCS HELPS:
Lewiz reviews life and protection insurance policies with particular attention to exclusions, disclosure requirements, and payout conditions.

🏥 HEALTH & MEDICAL INSURANCE
Understanding Coverage Before You Need Treatment
THE SITUATION:
You have private health insurance — through work or personal policy. You assume it covers everything. But private health insurance has extensive exclusions: pre-existing conditions, mental health limitations, dental and optical, pregnancy, cosmetic surgery, and chronic condition management. Understanding your coverage before you need treatment prevents surprise bills and denied claims.
HOW BINDING DOCS HELPS:
Lewiz analyses health insurance policies with attention to coverage limits, specialist access, hospital lists, outpatient limits, mental health provisions, and pre-existing condition handling.

✈️ TRAVEL INSURANCE
Don’t Discover Exclusions at the Airport
THE SITUATION:
You’ve booked a holiday and bought travel insurance. The certificate says you’re covered. But what about your pre-existing asthma? What if you need to cancel because a family member is ill? What’s the excess on medical claims abroad? Are adventure activities covered? Travel insurance exclusions are notoriously broad — and claims are notoriously difficult.
HOW BINDING DOCS HELPS:
Lewiz reviews travel insurance policies and flags the exclusions that catch travellers most often: pre-existing medical conditions, adventure sports, alcohol-related incidents, unattended belongings, and cancellation reason limitations. It checks your medical emergency cover limits against the cost of healthcare in your destination country.

🏢 BUSINESS INSURANCE
Protecting Your Business from the Risks That Matter
THE SITUATION:
You’re running a business and need insurance: public liability, professional indemnity, employer’s liability, cyber insurance, business interruption. Each policy has its own exclusions, limits, and conditions. A gap between policies could leave your business exposed to a claim that none of your insurers will cover. Business insurance is complex and the stakes are high.
HOW BINDING DOCS HELPS:
Lewiz reviews business insurance policies individually and as a portfolio, identifying coverage gaps between policies.

🐾 PET INSURANCE
Understanding What Your Pet Policy Really Covers
THE SITUATION:
Your pet is family. You’ve bought pet insurance to protect against unexpected vet bills. But pet insurance varies wildly: lifetime cover vs. maximum benefit vs. time-limited vs. accident-only. Pre-existing conditions are almost always excluded. Dental is often excluded. Hereditary conditions for certain breeds may be excluded. Behavioural treatments are rarely covered.
HOW BINDING DOCS HELPS:
Lewiz analyses pet insurance policies and explains exactly what type of cover you have, what’s excluded, and where the limits sit.

⚠️ CLAIMS & DISPUTES
When Your Insurer Says No
THE SITUATION:
Your claim has been rejected. The insurer says it falls within an exclusion. You’re not sure that’s right. Or your claim has been underpaid and the settlement doesn’t cover your losses. Or the insurer is delaying and you can’t get a straight answer. Insurance disputes are stressful and insurers have entire legal teams — you need to know your rights and document everything.
HOW BINDING DOCS HELPS:
Lewiz helps you understand why a claim was rejected, whether the rejection is valid, and what steps you can take. It drafts formal complaint letters, helps prepare Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS) complaints, and creates evidence packs that document your position clearly and professionally.

✓ Formal complaint to insurer
✓ Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS) complaint preparation
✓ Claims evidence documentation pack
✓ Underpayment challenge letter
✓ Policy interpretation dispute letter

✓ Subject access request to insurer
WHAT LEWIZ CAN DO FOR YOU:

Family legal documents are deeply personal. Lewiz guides you with empathy — explaining sensitive topics like guardianship, end-of-life wishes, and debt with care and clarity.
Upload any document and Lewiz scores every clause as Red (dangerous), Amber (caution), or Green (safe). You instantly know what needs attention — no legal expertise required.
Share documents with family members through secure Living Links. Everyone can review, comment, and agree — no printing, scanning, or mailing required.
All your family’s legal documents in one secure, organized place. AES 256-bit encryption, accessible only by you, with Smart Link sharing for designated family members.
Legal language can be intimidating, especially for wills and healthcare directives. Lewiz translates every clause into everyday language your whole family can understand.
Lewiz doesn’t just create documents — it reminds you to update them as life changes: new child, marriage, divorce, retirement, or annual reviews.
Yes. Lewiz reviews settlement agreements and identifies: the compensation amount (and whether it’s reasonable for your situation), the rights you’re waiving, tax treatment of the payment, restrictive covenants being imposed, reference provisions, and confidentiality clauses. Note: UK law requires you to receive independent legal advice on settlement agreements.
Yes. Lewiz creates grievance letters that follow the ACAS Code of Practice, including: clear statement of the complaint, specific incidents with dates and witnesses, previous attempts to resolve informally, and the outcome you’re seeking. Properly structured grievances are more likely to be taken seriously and resolved.
Yes. Lewiz explains the different student loan plan types (Plan 1, 2, 4, 5, and Postgraduate), repayment thresholds, interest rate calculations, and when loans are written off. For private education loans and tuition payment plans, Lewiz reviews terms like any other financial agreement — flagging hidden fees and penalty clauses.
Lewiz helps prepare supporting documents: witness statements, chronologies, schedules of loss, and position statements. It explains what tribunals expect and helps organise evidence. However, Binding Docs does not provide legal representation. For complex tribunal cases, we recommend consulting an employment solicitor.
Yes. Lewiz analyses training agreement clawback clauses and assesses whether the repayment amount is reasonable and proportionate. It checks for tapering (reducing over time), reasonable triggers (voluntary resignation vs. redundancy), and whether the clause could be considered a penalty clause.
When you upload career documents, Lewiz detects: probation end dates (Action), contract renewal dates (Expiry), notice period requirements (Action), training milestone deadlines (Action), tribunal filing deadlines (Action — urgent), pension auto-enrolment dates (Financial), and restrictive covenant end dates (Expiry).
