Miscellaneous Professional Indemnity

Miscellaneous Professional Indemnity

Professionals owe a duty of care to their clients. This cover is necessary if you are receiving income to provide a professional service involving specialist knowledge or expertise, including advice, design, consultancy, opinion, and analysis to a third party.

Overview

Delta's Miscellaneous Professional Indemnity Policy is designed to protect insureds from potential financial losses due to claims of negligence, errors, or omissions in their professional services. It provides a safety net against legal expenses and damages that may arise from dissatisfied clients or third parties. Even if a client is not found liable, the threat of claims and litigation can be costly and frustrating to defend, taking a huge toll on businesses and reputations.
