Professional Liability Insurance
Better protecting your business from factors beyond your control.
Professional advisory can be risky.
Even when you mean the best, the people and businesses you advise could accuse your company of misrepresentation, breach of contract or wrongful business practices.
Professional liability insurance protects businesses against charges of negligence or harm, based on a professional service or advice you provided. It’s also known as errors and omissions (E & O) insurance. Professional liability insurance covers defense costs, judgment, settlements and fines or penalties resulting from the allegations of misrepresentation, breach of professional services, wrongful business practices, misleading advice and conflict of interest.
