Professional liability insurance
explained
In business, unfortunately there is a wide
range of reasons for which someone may decide to sue you. If they
decide on this course of action, the legal resources to do so are
widely available. Luckily, this happens relatively infrequently for
any one business. When it does happen, your legal fees and any
compensation awarded against you could easily be enough to tip your
business over the edge.
What’s more, you do not necessarily need to do
anything wrong for someone to sue you. Ideally, you would still
defend your reputation in court, incurring fees. It is not a legal
obligation for you to have professional liability insurance, but
some professional bodies insist on it and plenty of your potential
clients might prefer that you did. That way, you know you can
afford to defend your reputation and your resources.
