Unfortunately, professionals of all types can be sued. If you are a professional who gives advice or guidance, treats or diagnoses clients, professional liability will protect you and your business practices from a lawsuit.
It’s best to be prepared before a lawyer comes knocking. Protecting your business, finances, and reputation with a professional liability policy is imperative if your clients pay for your expertise, knowledge, advice or care. At the Speakman Agency, we compare professional liability insurance quotes from a variety of insurance companies and find you the right coverage at a competitive rate.
What is professional liability insurance?
Professional liability insurance protects individuals and companies from assuming the full cost of defending a lawsuit that claims negligence of the individual or business. A claim of negligence, malpractice or misrepresentation is not covered under a general liability insurance policy, which makes professional liability insurance crucial for those who provide a service or advice for a fee. Depending on the profession, professional liability insurance may take on different forms and names, like
malpractice and E&O insurance.
The number of liability lawsuits against professionals has increased in recent years. Many professionals within a variety of industries are at risk of being sued, whether the charges are valid or unfounded. Such lawsuits can mean financial ruin both professionally and personally, including the loss of cars, homes and careers. Professional liability insurance helps with the financial burden of these events.
