Professional services coverage

If you run a consulting firm, marketing or PR agency, media agency, or accountancy practice, professional indemnity cover is vital should the services you provide fail to meet a client's expectations. Our professional indemnity insurance covers you, senior management and your firm against failure of service, errors and omissions, and negligence claims.

Risks we cover

Errors or omissions in providing a service

A client your law firm represented doesn’t believe you’ve exhausted every avenue of defence, and is holding you liable for their damages as well as legal fees.

 

Misrepresenting a service or capability

A client doesn’t believe that your accountancy practice has delivered on its promise to minimise their tax liability, and is threatening to sue for misrepresentation of your service.

 

Failure to perform a service on time

Your marketing agency missed a deadline to deliver a campaign and now the client wants you to pay for delayed business costs

 

Offering misleading professional advice

A client sues your consulting firm after a business decision you advised on leads to a reduction in stock price

FAQs

Professional indemnity insurance ensures you stay ahead of claims – real or alleged – that clients could bring against you. You should be able to perform your job with the confidence that, if a client is unhappy with the results or an employee makes a mistake, your business won’t be financially crippled by legal action.

This liability cover protects you against the risk of the professional advice or services you provide causing a client financial harm. That harm could be due to actual or alleged mistakes or a failure to perform a service. Examples include not completing work as expected, providing incorrect advice or guidance, and incorrect forecasting. Professional indemnity covers a client’s losses, as well as your legal expenses and business continuity costs.
