Professional indemnity insurance
You may feel confident in your work, but any business providing consultancy or inspection services is vulnerable to claims of negligence. Professional indemnity insurance will help protect you if a claim is brought against you, whether or not it is founded.
Our professional indemnity insurance policy for other professionals is specially designed to cover a range of business activities, including educational consultancy.

Liability insurance
If you regularly visit clients it is important to ensure you have protection in place should an accident occur as a result of something you’ve done. Public liability insurance would help cover any claims made against you by a client or member of the public for compensation. Employers’ liability insurance is required by law if you employ staff, and will protect you if an employee makes a claim for personal injury.
