Legal Expenses Insurance Southern Africa
LEZA is a registered non-life insurer that provides legal expenses cover. LEZA was the pioneer in the legal expenses insurance industry in Southern Africa with a track record now spanning more than 35 years.
It all began with a humble South African making a simple gesture of saying “thank you”, after our founder, as a Legal Aid employee, had referred him to an attorney. He offered to pay our founder ten rand every month for the rest of his life, if the latter promised to help him with his legal problems for the rest of his life. Although this innocent gesture could not be accepted, he had inadvertently identified an enormous need in our society.
We believe that independence and speciality are crucial components of legal protection and insurance services. This has ensured that since our inception and for the years to come, our Members’ interests come first.
Our vision is to be the first choice for agile, quality and affordable solutions, giving our partners the freedom to focus on their core business. Through our actions we strive to be accountable, driven, genuine, resourceful and caring.
