Protect yourself from costly mistakes

Errors and Omissions (E&O Insurance), is protection for your business from claims of negligence related to the professional services you provide. We also offer other coverages like EPLI and D&O.

HOW IT WORKS

E&O Coverage

E&O insurance can also offer coverage for claims arising from services provided in the past and work performed anywhere in the world. It's important to understand that a general liability policy won’t protect against these risks. E&O insurance offers a variety of coverage for small businesses including:

Alleged or actual negligence

Protects a business against actual or alleged errors and omissions when providing professional services, such as giving incorrect advice, an omission, or failing to deliver a service.

Defense costs

Provides legal defense when a covered claim is reported. Our carriers offer defense costs inside or outside of the liability limits.

Will E&O cover me even if the lawsuit is baseless?
