Professional indemnity insurance

Protection against unforeseen challenges in fulfilling contractual obligations

If your business promotes expert services, you may be legally liable for failing to meet the standards outlined in your contractual agreements

Whether you supply designs, specifications, advice or instructions, professional indemnity insurance is a type of cover that protects your business from any claims relating to the level of service your business provides. Professional indemnity insurance covers legal costs and expenses incurred in your defence, as well as any damages or compensation awarded if a client claims to have suffered a loss due to negligent services, advice, or designs.
