Professional Liability (E&O)
Defense and damages when a client alleges your work caused them financial harm — matched to your services, contracts, and revenue.
When your deliverable is advice, design, code, or counsel, your real exposure is a client claiming your work fell short. We build professional programs around E&O first — then layer the office, cyber, and management coverage that completes the picture.
Defense and damages when a client alleges your work caused them financial harm — matched to your services, contracts, and revenue.
Breach response, client notification, ransomware, and funds-transfer fraud — the claim scenario growing fastest for service firms.
Premises liability and property for offices, studios, and co-working setups — inexpensive, and usually required by your lease.
Directors & officers and employment-practices coverage as the firm grows past founders — hiring is when EPLI exposure starts.
The overlooked exposure when employees drive their own cars to client sites — your firm gets named in their accident.
Employee dishonesty and social-engineering fraud coverage — increasingly demanded in client contracts and vendor onboarding.
Client MSAs increasingly dictate your insurance. We read the requirement, quote to it, and supply the certificate language procurement actually accepts.
A marketing agency, an IT consultancy, and a financial advisor need different E&O forms from different carriers. We place by discipline, not by a generic “professional” class.
Cyber policies vary wildly in what they actually cover. We compare forms on breach response, social engineering, and business interruption — the clauses that decide real outcomes.
Headcount doubles, a big client demands $2M limits, you add a second entity — we restructure mid-term without making you start over.
For most small service firms, $1M E&O runs roughly $900–$3,000 a year depending on discipline, revenue, and claims history. Tech and financial-services E&O price higher than general consulting. We quote it alongside cyber, since carriers often package the two at better combined pricing.
If you hold any client data, use email, or invoice electronically, you have cyber exposure — funds-transfer fraud and ransomware hit service firms constantly. Standalone cyber for a small firm often costs less than $1,000 a year.
An LLC separates personal assets from business liabilities, but it doesn’t pay your legal defense — and professional claims name individuals routinely. E&O is what funds the defense; the LLC is what limits the blast radius. You want both.
