Professional Liability Insurance
Liability Insurance for Connecticut Professionals
The truth is that you cannot please everyone. At some point, you will have an unhappy client. This client may be angry at you for failing to follow through on promises or making mistakes during the performance of your services. If that failure or mistake then leads to that client’s financial loss, you could find yourself facing a lawsuit. That is where professional liability insurance steps in.
The Basics of Professional Liability Insurance
Professional liability insurance (PLI), or errors and omissions (E&O) coverage, provides you with the funds necessary to defend yourself in a lawsuit alleging professional misconduct in the form of errors, omissions and oversight. This includes covering costs related to attorney fees, filing fees and other court costs, settlements and damages. PLI can also protect you in the event of frivolous lawsuits that may lead nowhere, as these lawsuits still require a response, court motions and more.
