PI Insurance protects you if you have made a mistake or are found to have been negligent in performing a service under the terms of your contract.
Whilst completing freelance projects, risks can never be totally eliminated so don't let an unexpected mistake or incident take you out of business!
Remember, as a freelancer providing advice or services you are considered an 'expert' which means you owe your client a legal duty of care. If one day you provide an erroneous service you could be held legally responsible for damages caused to your client. This could leave you facing horrendous legal fee's and if held liable, responsible for paying compensation for the financial loss incurred.
But don't fret! For just a few pounds a day there is an insurance solution that can safeguard your personal and company assets if things go off beam. The solution is called professional indemnity insurance.
