Home Commercial insurance Professional Indemnity Insurance Professional Indemnity Insurance Policy Get a Quote Professional services provide advice in their individual areas of expertise. Whilst you may be an expert, in the increasingly litigious society we live in, there is always a chance that your advice could be challenged. Or worse, a claim of negligence bought against you. A claim against the work or services you have provided will cause disruptive ripples throughout your business. This applies regardless of whether the claim is successful or not. As a result, if you are providing expertise, skills or advice, you should consider professional indemnity cover. From sole traders to freelancers, contractors, limited companies or limited liability partnerships, P I cover is important to look into. What is professional indemnity insurance? Professional indemnity insurance (PI) is also known by the term ‘Professional Liability Insurance’. This is a type of commercial insurance policy that protects business owners from a claim against them of inadequate services. For example, customers could try to sue you for negligence that ended up costing them money. Likewise, customers can also claim you gave the wrong advice that resulted in a loss of income. As customers have the right to sue the person or business offering professional services or advice, P I cover is an effective safety net. Professional indemnity insurance was put in place to help safeguard service-based businesses.

As with your commercial insurance that covers your employers' liability and public liability amongst other things, the level of cover you need depends on the risks your business is exposed to.
