Welcome to PI Insurance – the site for persons seeking Professional Indemnity Insurance or Malpractice Insurance.
The terms PI Insurance & Professional Indemnity Insurance are also commonly known as Professional Negligence Insurance or Errors and Omissions Insurance.
Why do I need PI Insurance?
Everyone owes a duty of care to show reasonable care and skill when they are engaged to provide a service to someone. If someone fails to exercise this duty (i.e. is negligent) they may be liable for losses incurred by their client, and/or third parties. The problem is that even if you are innocent it may be costly to prove it/ defend the allegation of neglect. That’s where Professional Indemnity comes in.
Professional Indemnity insurance is a type of liability insurance that provides cover for the financial (note that it is financial consequence only) consequences of neglect, error or omission by the firm taking out the policy. We have more detailed explanations for you here.
We also place a significant amount of Malpractice Insurances
This is similar to Professional Indemnity insurance, but the policy wordings are refined to reflect the fact that someone may be injured (as opposed to purely suffering a financial loss) as a result of the professional services offered negligently by another.
The site is mainly aimed at professional Indemnity – But if you require a malpractice insurance quote please go to the Download Proposals. Pick the relevant form and send to us for a quote – alternatively please call us on 353 (0) 91 563518 or 1 890 799 997
