If you own a professional services business, Phoenix errors and omissions insurance also known as E&O is an essential coverage in order to help protect your business for potential losses. Even if your business is regularly giving advice to clients then errors and omissions liability coverage will help protect your business in case you fail to render those services properly.
Included in errors and omissions liability coverage is the full cost of defending against negligence claim made by a client and damages awarded in a lawsuit.
