How does Professional Indemnity Insurance actually work ?
The prime objective of Professional Indemnity Insurance is to protect your assets against 3rd parties taking legal action, or threatening to take legal action against you or your firm.
You should notify the insurance company immediately you are aware of any pending litigation against your firm
This enables the insurer to engage an appropriate commercial law firm which will liase with the potential litigant and advise that any legal action will be vigorously defended.
The object is to deter any potential litigation where possible
Professional Indemnity Insurance will protect you and your practice, or firm, from potential catastrophic loss if you have to defend any claims made against your firm, or any consultants, sub-contractors or agents you may hire.
It will also protect your good name which you have spent a lifetime building
