Professional Indemnity from only £25/month
It takes one act of negligence to destroy a business. Professional Indemnity removes that risk.
If your business is threatened by a customer or supplier with a complaint, it could lead to disastrous consequences. When you provide advice or professional services to other businesses you should seriously consider taking out professional indemnity for this reason.
Providing bad advice can lead to your business being sued. Professional Indemnity protects you from a wide range of situations, including libel and slander.
Even if your business is not in the wrong, the costs of legal cover can be high and professional indemnity will protect you against these costs.
Often your customers will specify the level of cover that you need with professional indemnity. For further details of cover provided, or for any questions about our professional indemnity service, call one of our friendly team or answer a few short questions and we'll call you back to provide a quotation.
