Professional Indemnity Insurance Brokers

Professional indemnity insurance is mandatory in some industries, such as medicine, accounting, law and financial advisers – with the requirements differing from state to state.

But even in cases where it’s not required by law, professional indemnity insurance is recommended for anyone who is providing professional services or advice in exchange for a fee, such as graphic designers, IT consultants and more. Regardless of your legal obligation, it’s often a customer requirement that you have this cover in place.

Anyone can make a mistake – but if your business is found liable for negligence, the costs can be financially devastating. Not only can it lead to an expensive lawsuit, but you’re the hard-earned reputation of your business may be damaged as a result.

That’s why professional indemnity insurance matters – for help protecting your assets and brand if your advice or insurance causes a client to take legal action against you.

At DKG Insurance Brokers, we understand that the needs of each client are different, therefore we will take the time to assess your individual risk requirements and deliver a bespoke solution. Please reach out today to speak with one of our experienced professional indemnity insurance brokers.
