Liability insurance for professionals in British Columbia

Acera Insurance offers professional liability insurance, also referred to as errors and omissions (E&O) insurance, to people in careers who routinely offer professional services or advice to others. If you provide services for a fee, or sign contracts that require you to have professional liability insurance, you and your business may face the risk of being sued by your customers and clients.

While an important foundational coverage, commercial general liability insurance generally does not cover claims resulting from professional services or advice.

Professional liability insurance from Acera Insurance offers additional protection to help with legal costs, if you do face legal action by a third-party or a client, related to an error or omission of information. Our commercial insurance brokers can provide you with an E&O policy to protect you from the financial loss due to an unexpected lawsuit.

Why do I need E&O insurance in BC?

While professionals like accountants, lawyers, engineers and architects are committed to providing their clients with accurate and high-quality service, mistakes can happen. Your clients can make alleged claims against your business for things such as error or failure to perform work outlined in a contract, malpractice and mismanagement. Accidental or not, just one small error can result in a costly lawsuit. Most businesses and professionals cannot absorb the financial impact of a lawsuit. In order to protect yourself and your firms from a number of exposures, professionals should seek professional liability insurance.
