IT consultant insurance products

Professional liability insurance for IT consultants


Professional liability insurance (also known as errors and omissions insurance) is an essential part of your IT consulting insurance. If there’s ever a discrepancy between the services you provide and what your client was expecting, your client may file a claim against your business.

Hiscox customizes its IT consulting insurance so you’re covered against the specific risks you face. For example, we automatically add $200,000 of software copyright infringement coverage to most our IT insurance policies.

Visit our professional liability insurance pages to learn more.



General liability for IT consultants


All IT consultant or technology service providers should seriously consider general liability coverage. It protects you from third-party claims arising from bodily injury (e.g., slips and falls) and related medical costs, personal injury (e.g., libel or slander), and damage to someone else’s property.

Visit our general liability insurance pages to learn more.



Workers’ compensation for IT consultants


For your convenience, Hiscox has joined forces with EMPLOYERS®, America’s small business insurance specialist®, to offer outstanding workers’ compensation insurance. Any business with employees should consider having some form of workers’ compensation insurance as it covers its statutory and legal obligations that are a direct result of on-the-job injuries and/or illnesses..
