انشورنس

Insurance disputes have a single dedicated ombudsman — the Federal Insurance Ombudsman (FIO) at fio.gov.pk. SECP regulates insurance companies under the Insurance Ordinance 2000. Compulsory third-party motor insurance is in the Motor Vehicles Act 1939, s.94.

Key statutes

  • Insurance Ordinance 2000
  • Federal Insurance Ombudsman Office (Establishment) Act 2005
  • Motor Vehicles Act 1939, s.94

When to hire a lawyer

Try the FIO first — free and binding up to PKR 5m. Hire for repudiated life-insurance claims > PKR 5m, group-policy disputes, and constitutional petitions against state-owned insurers (SLIC).
