Errors and Omissions
In today’s increasingly litigious environment, many of your clients are facing potential professional liability claims. Virtually every business that provides a professional service faces significant liability exposure. Professional liability coverage is designed to protect the professional from actions that occur from their professional capacity and training. The coverage is commonly referred to as “professional”, “errors and omissions”, or “malpractice” depending on the coverage form and the issuing company. Most General Liability policies exclude professional services.
In today’s society, professionals are being held to a higher standard of care than ever before. Your clients can be sued for negligence in providing a professional service, regardless of fault. For many businesses the cost to defend themselves against even the most frivolous of claims can be financially devastating. Some examples of professions that may benefit from such a policy are: adjusters, data processors, advertising professionals, insurance agents, real estate agents, stockbrokers, surveyors, designers, translators, and management consultants just to name a few.
