Products Professionals & Businesses Professional Liability Insurance

Professional Liability Insurance

Consultants and Licensed Professionals have a special duty of care to their clients and therefore require a more specialized type of coverage over and above a standard CGL. Professional Liability Insurance, also known as errors and omission insurance, responds to and defends for claims arising from actual or alleged negligent act, misstatement or misrepresentation, in the performance or failure to perform professional services.
