Errors & Omissions Insurance

Clients and customers rely on your business to provide dependable services. However, even the most experienced and meticulous companies may eventually make a mistake. In such situations, parties affected by your error may file a lawsuit and seek compensation for losses for which you are found responsible. Fortunately, errors and omissions (E&O) insurance can provide crucial financial protection. 

What Does E&O Insurance Cover? 
As its name suggests, E&O insurance provides your company coverage for incidents and allegations related to subpar services. While the details of an E&O policy may vary, this type of insurance can generally be relied on to provide financial assistance in response to the following accusations: 

• Negligence
• Errors
• Misrepresentation
• Omissions
• Oversights
• Inaccurate professional advice
• Missed deadlines
• Breach of contract 

Even if a lawsuit’s accusations are untrue or unfounded, your business may face significant costs to defend itself. Fortunately, most E&O policies can provide financial assistance to help cover the following: 

• Legal representation
• Court costs (e.g., paying an expert witness or reserving a courtroom)
• Settlements
• Judgments
• Administrative costs 

Who Needs E&O Insurance? 
Regardless of size, sector or circumstances, your business can benefit from acquiring and maintaining E&O  insurance. Without adequate coverage, even a small error arising could have irreparable ramifications for your organization’s finances, reputation and future.
