WHY DO LEGAL PROFESSIONALS NEED
BUSINESS INSURANCE?
You might wonder what is legal services insurance for and why get it? Well, business insurance offers you protection from a wide range of unexpected events and accidents, from clients getting injured by tripping over file boxes on the floor to accusations of making mistakes.
Besides, having legal services insurance is worth it because it means that you don’t have to fully pay out of pocket if an accident does occur. With the right law firm insurance coverage, you can focus on practicing law instead of worrying about defending your business.
Legal firm liability insurance can help cover costs if you find yourself in the unfortunate situation of being accused of causing an injury or damaging property that doesn’t belong to you. It also can help you if someone says your marketing efforts were misleading or slanderous.
General liability insurance’s broad protection can help cover you from expenses related to accidental damage to someone’s property or an injury to someone who is not an employee.
For example, if an elderly client trips on a rug in your office, hits their head and wants you to pay for their ER visit. General liability can help pay for their medical expenses up to your policy limit
Professional liability insurance (also known as errors and omissions) can help cover you for cases where you are accused of making a professional error, whether that’s true or not. For instance, if a client sues you for making a mistake in legal paperwork that led to them losing a significant deal, law firm professional liability insurance will help pay for costs to defend your business.
You may already know that many legal professionals need to hold malpractice insurance, which is a specialized type of professional liability coverage. While they both help cover business owners if they make a professional mistake, not all professional liability insurance is necessarily malpractice insurance.

OTHER IMPORTANT BUSINESS INSURANCE COVERAGE FOR LAW FIRMS & LEGAL PROFESSIONALS
Liability insurance is a good place to start, but you can also customize your legal services insurance plans to protect your employees and your property.
WORKERS' COMPENSATION FOR LEGAL PROFESSIONALS
Workplace injuries happen more frequently than you might think. Workers’ comp makes those situations easier by helping to pay for medical bills for injuries and illnesses that happen to you or your employees while on the job. Workers’ comp can also help to cover lost wages while recuperating from tripping over a computer cord in your office.
This coverage is required for businesses with employees in every state except Texas.
COMMERCIAL AUTO INSURANCE FOR LEGAL SERVICES BUSINESSES
Attorneys, legal assistants, and notary business owners who own or rent physical spaces will need property insurance to help protect business equipment, inventory and furniture. If your business property is damaged due to a covered event, such as a burst water pipe or fire, property insurance can help with replacement costs or repairs.
