Why the need for Errors
& Omissions Coverage?
Its no secret.
In Canada, court awards have risen in recent years. Increasingly,
people are showing willingness to turn to the courts when they
believe that goods or services they received are substandard.
The fact is, even if you are not at fault, defending
yourself in court is a costly business - and a threat to your
financial security.
Do You Need Errors
& Omissions Insurance?
Are you a professional or an expert in your chosen field?
Is the work you do skilled and specialized?
Do your professional duties involve providing advice or
services?
Do your customers expect a high degree of service?
Does your profession demand a high degree of moral principles
and standards?
When do you require E & O coverage?
Lawsuits can affect any profession. A simple error or omission
can result in exorbitant claims over:
defective design
improper appraisal
improper treatment
inaccurate advice
inaccurate information provided
typographical errors
Will your existing
insurance policy protect you?
Most Liability policies do not respond to suits involving
professional services.
Errors and Omissions insurance complements your Commercial
General Liability coverage - filling in these dangerous gaps.
What coverage does
an E & O policy provide?
An Errors & Omissions policy provides third party liability
coverage for the following damages resulting from and error,
omission or negligent act:
Bodily Injury
Property Damage
Financial Loss
In addition, an E & O policy will pay to defend you in court,
and in most cases, the defense costs will not reduce your coverage
in any way.
NOTE: For complete details of governing conditions and
limitations, refer to the specific policy form.
