FAQs

Common questions.

What is the difference between professional liability and general liability?

Professional liability covers financial losses from professional errors and advice. General liability covers bodily injury and property damage. Most professionals need both.

Do I need professional liability as a consultant?

Yes. Consultants providing professional advice face significant E&O exposure. Client contracts often require proof of professional liability coverage.

What is prior acts coverage?

Prior acts coverage extends protection to professional work performed before the policy inception date. This is important because claims often arise years after work is completed.
