Understanding E&O for forensic experts in Regina
Sometimes referred to as errors and omissions insurance, professional liability coverage can protect forensic experts in Regina from shouldering the costs of an unexpected lawsuit. Specifically, this unique form of insurance can cover legal expenses when a client claims you were negligent in providing forensic advice or service, which caused them financial damages.
Covered legal expenses may include defence costs, judgement awards and settlements, up to your policy limit. We offer three limits:
- $1,000,000
- $2,000,000
- $5,000,000
Choose your limit based on the likelihood of a lawsuit and expected cost of a lawsuit, your annual revenue, and the number of clients and value of each contract.
Three reasons forensic experts in Regina should have professional liability insurance
- Mistakes happen. Professional errors can be made regardless of how knowledgeable and diligent you are, and clients can sue when these mistakes cause them to lose money. Don’t gamble on never making a mistake—professional liability insurance for forensic experts in Regina offers affordable peace of mind.
- Legal costs are expensive. It doesn’t matter if you’re guilty or not, defending yourself can be extremely expensive. Professional liability insurance can help forensic experts in Regina cover defence fees as well as any restitution you may have to pay, such as settlements and judgement awards.
- Other liability insurance doesn’t cover it. Typically, only professional liability insurance provides coverage if a client claims your forensic advice or service was negligent, incorrect or lacked critical detail, and ultimately caused financial damages. This is different from general liability, which can provide coverage should your business cause third-party bodily injury or property damage.

Examples of professional liability insurance claims for forensic experts in Regina
Here are a couple of examples of covered forensic expert professional liability insurance claims.
You mistakenly divulge incorrect information while delivering expert testimony. The client that acquired you as an expert accuses you of negligence after they lose the case.
Circumstances outside your control prevent you from making it to court on the day you’re to provide forensic expert testimony. The company that asked you to be a witness ultimately loses the case and holds you liable for the damages they owe.
You contract a portion of your work to a third-party expert, but their testing wasn’t properly performed and is inadmissible in court. The party who hired you for your forensic expertise holds you liable for negligence.
