Do you cover solicitor's professional indemnity?

We cover most solicitor's professional indemnity with the exception of criminal defence.

Can we diversify during our insurance period?

Yes, diversification is not a problem. Please ensure that you tell your insurance provider in advance of your planned diversification in order that the relevant cover can be put in place.

What is a retroactive date?

A retroactive date is a date for how far back claims will be accepted under a professional indemnity policy. Even though claim events may have occurred before a policy was taken out, the inclusion of a retroactive date will provide this additional cover.

What cover limits should I purchase?

For public liability, the absolute minimum recommended amount would be £1million, although best practice would be to have £2million to £2.5million, or higher depending on your exposure. For a professional indemnity limit, it would very much depend on the size and value of your contracts and any specific contractual agreements.

Can I just buy an office policy?

It depends on what your business offers. While no two businesses are the same, no two office policies are the same. We will work with you to understand your needs and recommend the correct policies for you.
