Professional Indemnity Insurance

Sourcing a policy through AMT Insurance Solutions can help you to perform your work in confidence with the security of Professional Indemnity Insurance (PI).

If you are paid for providing advice or services to others, having Professional Indemnity is strongly recommended – and in some professions is a mandatory cover.

Despite your dedication to professionalism and delivering high-quality work, there’s always the potential for misunderstandings or mistakes. If a client believes they’ve suffered financially or reputationally due to your actions, or if you haven’t met their expectations, you could face legal action. Clients can file claims regardless of whether they are ultimately valid and defending against these claims requires both time and money.

Professional Indemnity Insurance provides coverage for various claims, including professional negligence, financial losses, loss of goods, documents or data, defamation, libel, and accidental copyright infringement. It can apply not only to work you’ve completed, but also to situations where work is incomplete or errors occur.

For certain professions, PI insurance is mandatory and it’s also common for your prospective clients to request your firm’s PI policy before awarding potential contracts. Many clients expect professional firms to have PI insurance as it demonstrates a well-managed firm with a proactive approach to risk management.

No matter the professional service or advice you provide, having Professional Indemnity Insurance allows you the comfort of knowing there is protection and support available should you require it.
