The Business Of Liability Insurance

Professional liability insurance, also known as professional indemnity insurance protects you in the event that a client sues you for damages resulting from your advice or professional services. What happens when a divorce lawyer drafts an inadequate marriage contract that ends up costing their client millions of dollars in a hefty settlement? Or, when a corporate accountant’s incorrect math results in their client owing millions of dollars to the government? Professional liability insurance will cover legal costs, settlement payouts, and other expenses arising from a potential lawsuit.
