Professional Liability Insurance:
The Foundation of Embroker’s Insurance Programs for Accountants, Tax Preparers, and Bookkeepers
For businesses like yours, the impact of errors can be especially severe.
In our recent survey of more than 200 accountants, 46% reported that they’ve experienced a situation where an error or mistake in their work resulted in financial losses or penalties for their company/client.
These mistakes often come with a price tag.
72% of respondents who experienced an error said that either they or their company were held financially responsible.
As a small business, you simply can’t afford the financial fallout if you make a mistake — or be perceived as having made one.
So, what kinds of professional liability suits do accountants, tax preparers, and bookkeepers get slapped with most often?
Here’s a breakdown:
What About Cyber Protection?
We know that 60% of financial services professionals do most or all of their work digitally, putting them at greater risk of a data breach or cyberattack.
We don’t want to leave you hanging when it comes to real-world risk scenarios (like phishing scams).
That’s why our tailored programs often include additional cyber coverage designed to complement our Professional Liability Insurance.
What Does This Cover?
