Professional Liability Insurance

What is professional liability insurance?

Professional liability insurance covers, within policy limits, compensation claims for damage suffered by clients or third parties because of an error, negligence or omission while practising your profession. Legal defence costs are also included in most policies.

For lawyers, architects, engineers, doctors, consultants, software developers and many other independent professionals, it matters both for meeting legal obligations and for your own financial security. Evita Sigorta compares policies suited to your profession across insurers.

How to determine the right cover limit

In a professional liability policy the limit is set separately for a single event and for total claims in a year. Your annual volume of work, the value of the projects you handle and the size of the responsibility you take on for clients are the main criteria for an appropriate limit.

The deductible, retroactive date and exclusions are items that need particular attention. The retroactive date shows whether claims arising from work done before the policy started are covered, which is why uninterrupted renewal matters.

For some professions, professional liability insurance may be compulsory under legislation or professional body rules. You can discuss with our team whether it is required for your profession and what minimum limit may be requested.
