Professional Indemnity Insurance - from a legal point of view

If your job requires you to provide professional advice or any other services considered to be of a professional nature (e.g. accountancy, law, advertising or medicine), it is crucial that you are correctly insured.

If you are working in a professional sector you should consider covering yourself against civil liabilities that include contract, tort, breach of statutory duty, breach of intellectual property and breach of fiduciary duty. Although these are the main sources of liability for professionals, other PI extras, such as loss of document cover, can be bundled with your standard insurance package depending on your needs.
