What Is Professional Liability Insurance? 
Professional liability insurance can provide coverage if a client files a lawsuit against your business alleging a mistake or oversight resulted in financial damages. It may also be known as errors and omissions (E&O) insurance.

Professional liability insurance may provide coverage of claims of the following: 

• Professional negligence
• Misrepresentations
• Mistakes 
• Errors
• Oversights 
• Omissions
• Inadequate work
• Incorrect advice 

It can help compensate the affected parties and pay associated legal expenses that arise from these suits (e.g., court costs, settlement and judgments), even if the claim is eventually dropped. Contact your agent for details regarding terms, limits and exclusions (e.g., criminal acts or intentional wrongdoing).
