Professional Indemnity Services for Northern Ireland Businesses

The need for professional indemnity (PI) cover has grown over the past several decades as more people enter professional service-based occupations. While PI insurance still covers ‘traditional’ professionals, such as doctors, solicitors, accountants and architects, a new market of professionals now need to consider PI cover. Whether a traditional or new professional, you can protect yourself, your business and your reputation by investing in professional indemnity cover.

Examples of consultants requiring Professional Indemnity include:

• Design & Construct Specialists- e.g. Architects, Chartered Surveyors, Engineers, Builders, Mechanical & Electrical, interior designers, plumbers, electricians and gas fitters
• Business consultants- e.g. Management & Business Consultants, Marketing consultants, Accountants, Tax and Legal Advisors, HR Advisors, Training Consultants, Private Tutors and Fitness Professionals
• IT Consultants- e.g. IT professionals including IT contractors, consultants, programmers and developers, web designers, graphic designers
• Recruitments Consultants- e.g. Recruitment agencies and recruitment consultants

PI insurance safeguards against catastrophic losses in the event of a legal action due to a negligent act, error or omission by the professional. In addition to claims of error, omission or negligence, PI insurance may also protect against slander, libel and breach of contract.
