Errors and Omissions Insurance for Lawyers in Alaska
Errors and omissions (E&O) insurance is a type of professional liability insurance. It is designed to protect you and your law firm from the financial consequences of claims or lawsuits arising from the rendering of or failure to render professional services. Lawyers’ professional liability insurance can help pay for legal expenses when an unsatisfied client claims something you did—or didn’t do—caused them financial loss.
Simply put, E&O insurance is a safety net for your professional mistakes. This makes it an important piece of your business insurance portfolio.
E&O insurance can provide coverage for a variety of risks, including:
- Professional errors and omissions: A client claims you made a mistake or failed to do something you should have done.
- Misrepresentation: When you make a false statement or fail to disclose important information to a client.
- Inaccurate advice: A client claims they suffered financial loss because an attorney or title agent provided incomplete, inaccurate, or misleading information or guidance.
- Missed deadlines: Failure to deliver a service as promised and at a certain time.
- Negligence: A client claims a lawyer owed a duty to the client but breached this duty and caused the client to suffer some financial harm. Negligence is failure to exercise an appropriate level of care with no intent to cause harm.
- Breach of contract: Asserts that the lawyer failed to perform the necessary duties under the terms specified in the contract.
- Undelivered work: The client expected the attorney to complete a greater scope of work than what was delivered.
In responding to a claim or lawsuit filed by your client, E&O insurance coverage can help your law firm pay for:
- Attorney fees
- Court administrative costs
- Expert witness fees
- Settlements
- Judgments
