Claims defence costs
PI policies typically cover legal defence costs even where claims are ultimately unsuccessful. These costs can be significant regardless of outcome.
Damages and settlements
Covers compensation payments awarded to clients who suffer financial loss as a result of your professional error or omission.
Run-off cover
Covers claims made after a business closes or a professional retires, for work done during the period of cover. Critical at retirement or practice closure.
Common issues we see
- Policy scope too narrow — the services described in the policy must match what you actually do.
- Retroactive date too recent — claims can arise from work done years earlier.
- Cyber and data exclusions — some PI policies exclude data-related claims that are now common.
- Contract requirements not met — client contracts often specify minimum limits and endorsements.
