Professional Indemnity

If you are offering a service to the public, whether as an expert in your field, business adviser, management consultant or any other professional occupation, there will be times when you need some extra support with issues which fall outside of your control…

Everyone should have confidence in their expertise and skills. However, mistakes and oversights can happen. Professional indemnity insurance is there to protect you if your client suffers a financial loss through your work for them.

If your business gives advice, offers a professional service, or handles data or intellectual property belonging to a client or business, you could at some point need professional indemnity insurance. This cover is there to protect you against the cost of a claim made against you for negligence or a mistake that leaves the client out of pocket. Even if you’ve done nothing wrong, the cost of defending yourself against these claims can be very high. Professional indemnity cover can help protect you and your business from this.

Main policy features *

  • Public liability, to cover you should you be sued by a member of the public if they are injured as a result of your negligence
  • Products liability, should any of your products cause harm to a member of the public
  • Professional indemnity, should the advice or guidance that you give to your clients be incorrect and leads to loss or injury to them
  • Libel and slander, to cover you should someone feel that you have written or said something about them that is inappropriate.

Typical Exclusions:

  • Asbestos
  • Bodily injury to an employed person (this would fall under employer liability insurance, which we also offer)
  • Damage to property owned or in your custody and control
  • Legal liability for which compulsory motor insurance is required
  • Liquidated damages, fines and penalties
  • Pollution and contamination unless pollution or contamination is sudden or unforeseen.

    Words from our clients…

    Shannonside Civil Engineering Ltd

    "Over the last eight years we have continued to renew our cover through Adler Fairways, we consider them a partner of our wider business on the growth trajectory to being a 100 million pound business. Having guided us from a small start up to where we are today, their guidance and level of experience have been invaluable in ensuring we are covered in all aspects of our liabilities. This has allowed us to focus on growth and margins. Thank you Adler Fairways as we move forward together into the future." Shannonside Civil Engineering

    John Hall, Director, West Midlands Fasteners

    "Adler Fairways have taken care of our insurance needs for many years, during which time we have built a strong relationship. We have come to depend on their expertise and know we can always rely on them." West Midlands Fasteners

    Faisal Ravat, Managing Director, E&S Motors Ltd

    "We transferred our insurance to Adler Fairways Insurance Brokers in 2023, when they offered us a much more complete and competitive premium than our current brokers. The team took the time to understand our business and future needs; we have continued to receive excellent service from them, and have been impressed with their care, and attention to detail. What is key for our business is the advice that is given when needed, and the robust claims management internally which has helped manage our premiums for a traditionally difficult to insure niche sector of the motor trade." E&S Motors

    Frank Ryan, Director, Reirse Ryan Ltd

    "We have been with Adler Fairways for a number of years now and remain with them for the personal service we receive together with commercially competitive premiums and the knowledge that when a claim does arise, professional assistance is always to hand." Reirce Ryan

    Gerald Doble, Director, G A Doble

    "The Adler Fairways team has looked after our insurance portfolio for several years now and have provided excellent service throughout. Our annual renewal reviews are always conducted in good time ahead of renewal with all our questions answered and we are extremely impressed with the renewal proposals received. Prior to moving our business to Adler Fairways, we had not received a proper review for several years. The team were instrumental in making sure our insurance was arranged on the correct basis and have also been able to save us money on our premiums over the years. It is clear that they have our best interests at heart, both from an insurance cover and premium perspective. Whenever we have a query or need to make a change to our policies, it is dealt with efficiently and professionally. We can’t fault them on their reliability and excellent personal service".

    John Dyke, Central Scaffold Walsall Ltd

    "As a scaffold company operating within the construction industry, it is crucial for us to have a reliable and experienced insurance broker by our side. Adler Fairways has been a trusted partner to us for over 15 years and we couldn’t be more satisfied with their exceptional service. From the beginning, they demonstrated a deep understanding of the unique risks we face as a scaffold business and worked with us to ensure we’re always fully protected onsite. We have peace of mind in their ability to source comprehensive, industry-specific coverage at competitive rates which is a huge benefit to our operations. The fact that Adler Fairways is a Chartered insurance brokerage also demonstrates their ongoing commitment within their profession." Central Scaffold Walsall
