Is Professional Liability Insurance for Consultants Necessary?
If you answer yes to any of these questions then you need professional liability insurance.
- Do you charge a fee to provide specialized expertise, services, or opinions?
- Do you provide technology services?
- Do you have any clients that require you to be insured?
- Do you support clients administratively?
As a consultant, you are vulnerable to several different types of claims and it is important to protect your business from the financial strain of expensive claims. While some claims may not be too expensive, it is more common to experience claims that cost several thousand dollars. You don’t need to worry about that! That is what insurance for consultants is for.
What’s Covered in Consultant Insurance?
We recommend consultants include several different coverages on their professional liability insurance for consultants’ policy. Our recommended coverages include:
General Liability Coverage
Professional Liability Coverage
Professional liability coverage protects from the cost of claims that stem from your business operations. A common claim could include a client suing you over misinformation or faulty professional advice.
Errors and Omission Coverage
Errors and omission (E&O) coverage protects from the financial stress of claims that stem from misinformation or faulty business practices. Errors and omissions insurance can also protect you from claims that stem from your business practices.
Cyber Liability Coverage
Cyber liability coverage protects your consulting business in the event of a cyber security attack. If you store client information online, you are susceptible to cybersecurity breaches. We highly recommend adding this coverage to your policy.
Tools and Equipment Coverage
Tools and equipment coverage provides a financial buffer in case your business equipment is stolen or damaged. Tools and equipment coverage can help repair or replace damaged or stolen equipment.
