Why should a professional service firm purchase Pro ERM℠?

  • Clients may require a service firm to carry professional liability insurance.
  • Clients may hold a service firm responsible for their liability if such liability arises out of the service firm’s action.
  • Clients may incorporate the service firm’s work product into the products or services they provide to others. A lawsuit can be brought by any third party who relies on, or is adversely impacted by, the service—not just the immediate client.
  • Service firms may have access to proprietary business information or personal protected information and have a duty to safeguard that information.
  • Service firms may hire and oversee subcontractors to provide certain services on their behalf. Clients may hold the service firm responsible for the work product of the subcontractors.
  • Having the right insurance in place can actually be a marketing advantage when competing against companies to win a service contract.
