Professional Liability offers protection from claims arising
from negligent acts, errors or omissions on the part of a
professional in the performance of a service to a third party.
Evidence of negligence does not automatically establish a
liability. It is the breach of duty, which can expose the
professional to financial liability.
Exposure can persist beyond the service provided by the
practitioner. For example, a professional will be equally liable
for the negligence of any person they employ while acting in a
professional capacity.
Your coverage with this policy is triggered when a claim is made
rather than when damage occurred. So, it is important that no gap
in coverage occurs. Once your policy is terminated, you can
purchase extended reporting periods, which allow additional months
or years to file a claim.
Please review the declaration page of your policy and verify
that the professional activities covered include all your
operations. If you act in more than one professional capacity, you
will require all of these noted on your policy or obtain two
policies, one for each profession.
