Errors & Omissions (E&O) insurance

E&O insurance aims to protect the company against claims for damages arising from professional services, often due to inadequate work or negligence.

Covering defence costs from the start of the procedure, as legal support is needed.

How does E&O insurance protect companies?

Who needs E&O insurance? 

Any business providing a service needs Errors and Omissions cover. Just a few examples:

• Contractors
• Maintenance companies
• Architectures;
• Lawyers;
• Accountants;
• Graphic designers;
• Doctors;
• And many more.

If you are providing advice for a living, or working in a regulated sector, we recommend professional indemnity insurance.
