Why Choose AIG for Professional Indemnity Insurance?

Professional Liability (also known as Professional Indemnity) allows whole the practice team to do their jobs without always looking over their shoulders.

Each day professionals need to make decisions and some of these may be questioned, perhaps as much as years afterward. Professional Liability insurance covers claims that are actually made while the policy is in force, even if the error causing it happened years ago. 

We insure a broad range of professional activities and recognise that the areas of risk or grounds for complaint are often quite different between them. That’s why our policies are designed around the real needs of particular classes of professional – and from individual contractors to large firms.
