  • Protection up to £10 million
  • Cover for your temporary staff
  • Working partners included in the policy.
Public Liability Insurance 

This is not a legal requirement but if you have any interaction with the public is it strongly recommended that you take out cover against compensation the courts rule that you are due to pay for personal injury or material damage to third parties as a result of negligence of your business. Legal costs alone can be very large, these are included within the cover.  We have experience in arranging policies for a range of businesses including tradesmen, restaurants and cafes.

Product Liability Insurance

Data is increasingly important to your business and keeping it secure is becoming harder and harder. Any information you keep about yourself, your business, and indeed anything your Clients trust you with, is open to attack from hackers, at risk if your IT systems fail, and open to issues of sharing due to human error. Putting it right takes time and money, and a possible reputational hit.
