Here is what you need to know about the professional liability insurance:

Errors and omissions insurance (E&O) is also called professional liability insurance or malpractice insurance, depending on the industry. This policy has a narrower focus than general liability insurance.

Specifically, errors and omissions insurance coverage include:

Work mistakes and oversights

Even a small professional error or oversight could end up costing a client money. When the client tries to recoup their losses by suing your business over the mistake, errors and omissions insurance (E&O) helps pay for your legal costs.

Undelivered services

If your business leaves work unfinished, it can interrupt your client’s business plans. When you fail to deliver promised services, a client could sue – especially if it negatively impacts the client’s bottom line.

Accusations of negligence

If your business fails to meet minimum industry standards while working with a client, the client might sue your business for negligence. A dissatisfied client could still sue for negligence even when there’s nothing wrong with your work.

Missed deadlines

If your business misses a deadline, it could delay your client’s business plans and result in lost revenue. If a client sues your business over late work, errors and omissions insurance can cover the cost of the lawsuit.
