Highly regarded within the insurance market the Professional Indemnity and Financial Risks team handles all classes of professional indemnity and financial risks, including construction, directors & officers, cyber and crime.
Members of the Professional Indemnity team have been acting for Lloyd’s syndicates and composite insurers for over 25 years, and have been involved in many of the most significant cases over that period dating back to SAAMCo and Nykredit.
While the term ‘professional’ has traditionally been applied to the likes of solicitors, architects, surveyors, engineers and accountants, as the business landscape has evolved so has the term. Those providing specialist services, advice and/or consultancy services are all now included in this classification.
As the scope of professional indemnity insurance has developed, so has the expertise of our specialist Professional Indemnity and Financial Risks team, which has a wealth of experience in professions ranging from the traditional accountants to the more unique zoo keepers.
In addition to the team’s considerable experience in the defence of claims made against professionals, directors, officers and trustees, it also houses specialists in insurance law, regularly advising UK and foreign based insurers on a full range of policy coverage and regulatory issues.
Our approach is to ensure that claims are handled proportionately, cost-effectively, and proactively to reduce indemnity spend, defence costs and third party costs whilst maintaining quality. We work closely with insurers and their insureds to achieve these aims and to enhance insurers’ customer reputation.
