Insurance + Risk Services

Claims against companies and individuals for breach of ‘professional duty’ resulting in financial loss are becoming all too common, particularly for engineers. EngInsure has developed a tailored Professional Indemnity Insurance policy to respond and protect your business against this significant operating risk. 

Professional Indemnity Insurance is designed to provide you and your business with financial protection against claims alleging loss as a result of your professional advice or service.

Any company or individual that provides professional advice or services can be held liable for financial loss that occurs as a result of an error or oversight in carrying out their work.

Professional Indemnity Insurance acts to insulate you against this financial exposure, even extending to cover your legal expenses in the defence of a potential claim.

Make sure you have a quality safety net in place when working to meet the often demanding expectations of clients. EngInsure’s advisers possess a deep understanding of the challenges you face as an engineer, and can provide you with a bespoke Professional Indemnity solution that empowers you with greater control over the financial future of your business.
