What is Professionals Insurance?

Churchill’s insurance for professionals protects you from unexpected losses like damaged or stolen equipment or legal action from a client if you make a mistake.

If you own your own business, or you’re self-employed, it’s difficult to recover from large expenses you haven’t planned for unless you have the correct insurance in place.

Depending on the nature of your business you could benefit from Public Liability Insurance, Employers’ Liability Insurance, or Professional Indemnity Insurance.

We also offer a wide range of optional extras that cover your business essentials like stock, tools, and equipment.

Who does Professionals Insurance cover?

We cover a large number of small businesses and self-employed professionals including:

Why do I need Professionals Insurance?

For business owners, insurance isn’t always top of the list of priorities. Securing clients, building a reputation, and keeping on top of cash flow, can seem more important.

If you don't have the right insurance cover, all your hard work could be wasted if a customer or a member of the public takes legal action against you.

Our Professionals Insurance provides £1 million public liability cover as standard, with options to increase it to up to £10 million. 

You can also choose from a range of optional extras to protect you from other significant risks, like a named member of your team having an accident at work.

Making sure you have the correct insurance is a key part of building a successful business.
