The lawyer, the association or the professional society must stipulate, autonomously or through conventions subscribed by the CNF or local bar councils, associations or other legal bodies, an insurance policy to cover risks deriving from the exercise of the profession, including those incurred through the supervision of documents, sums of money, securities and other assets received on deposit by clients (Article 12, Legal Profession Law). The essential conditions and the minimum limits of such insurance policies are established and updated every five years by the Minister of Justice, after consultation with the CNF.
