Professional Liability

Any company or individual providing professional advice or acting as a service provider has concerns about Professional Liability/Errors and Omissions exposures.

  • Accountants

Management Liability

Most organizations face liability and coverage issues arising from the day-to-management and oversight of their businesses. Principles, board members, and other top-level executives have a fiduciary obligation to their shareholders, limited partners and members to make sound business decisions and ensure that business is running smoothly. As we all know, sometimes claims of mismanagement arise requiring the need for a capable defense of corporate lawsuits. We provide experienced defense litigation for the following types of management personnel:
 

  • Directors & Officers Liability (D&O)
  • General Partnership Liability (GPL)
  • Employment Practices Liability (EPLI)
  • Outside Directorship Liability (ODL)
