Consulting Services Professional Liability Insurance Protects Your Business
The high cost of a legal defense could put your consulting firm out of business. Your company's survival and your personal financial security depend upon protecting yourself against the impact of a lawsuit.
Almost any firm or individual that improperly performs services can cause a client to suffer an economic loss - and mounting a defense is expensive. The impact of even a baseless claim can be devastating. Would your company have the resources and expertise to defend against such a claim?

As a successful consultant, you are a trusted business partner. Your clients count upon you for critical advice regarding business planning and management, marketing, technical planning and implementation, personnel staffing, public and community relations, and other vital functions of their business. An Errors & Omissions Policy helps protect the valued relationships you have developed by protecting both your client and your own financial security.
Mistakes Happen. Even the most skilled professionals are likely to make an error at some point. From catastrophic equipment failures to human oversights that result in personal injury, many incidents can result in a lawsuit.
You Can't Be All Places At Once. As your firm becomes more successful, you may not be able to personally handle every aspect of each consulting job. Errors & Omissions coverage insures not only your mistakes, but also the mistakes of the employees and independent contractors you hire. Request a Quote
What Is Covered by Consulting Services Errors and Omissions Insurance?
Consultant Professional Liability Insurance includes legal defense costs - no matter how baseless the allegations. It will pay for any resulting judgments against you, including court costs, up to the coverage limits on your policy.
Some of your clients may require that you and your subcontractors carry Errors & Omissions insurance. The right kind of E&O policy can protect both the consulting firm and subcontractors from claims of a perceived error or omission, even if the problem occurs months after the initial consultation.

Doesn't My General Liability Insurance Provide the Same Protection?
Errors and Omissions insurance coverage is not provided by a
Commercial General Liability policy. Commercial General Liability does NOT provide coverage for errors, contract performance disputes or any other Professional Liability issues. Consultants and companies who have General Liability without Professional Liability (Errors & Omissions) coverage are taking a serious risk. It's like a doctor practicing medicine without Malpractice Insurance.
