We build coverage programs aligned with your practice areas, firm size, staffing structure, and risk profile—so your protection supports daily operations and long-term stability.
Key Coverages for Law Firms
Professional Liability (Legal Malpractice Insurance)
The cornerstone of protection for any law firm. Covers claims alleging errors, omissions, negligence, or failure to perform professional duties. Defense costs and settlements can be significant, even when claims are unfounded.
General Liability Insurance
Protects against third-party bodily injury or property damage claims, such as a client injury at your office location.
Cyber Liability Insurance
Law firms manage sensitive client data, financial information, and confidential documents. Cyber coverage helps address risks tied to data breaches, ransomware, phishing, and other digital threats.
Workers’ Compensation Insurance
Provides coverage if employees are injured while performing job-related duties. Required for New Jersey firms with employees.
Commercial Property Insurance
Protects office space, furnishings, computers, records, and equipment from covered losses such as fire, theft, or storm damage. Business income coverage may help replace lost revenue during a covered interruption.
Employment Practices Liability Insurance (EPLI)
Covers claims related to employment disputes, including allegations of discrimination, wrongful termination, or harassment.
Umbrella Liability Insurance
Provides additional liability protection above underlying policy limits. Particularly important for firms seeking higher protection thresholds.
