SPECIALIST INSURANCE BROKERS FOR SOLICITORS

Our specialist broking team has been advising legal practices on their insurance and risk management needs for many years. From small, single‑office firms to large, multi‑site legal practices, we support solicitors across all disciplines and stages of growth. Our expert brokers take the time to understand the structure of your firm and the exposures faced by your partners, then search and negotiate across the market to secure best‑value and compliant protection tailored to your specific requirements.

SOLICITORS REGULATION AUTHORITY

PROFESSIONAL INDEMNITY. ENSURING YOUR PRACTICE REMAINS COMPLIANT.

You face strict regulatory obligations to maintain appropriate Professional Indemnity Insurance as a condition of practising. Under Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA) rules, firms must hold continuous, compliant cover with an approved insurer, meeting minimum limits of indemnity and defined minimum terms.

Insurance must respond to claims of professional negligence, include defence costs, and provide mandatory Run‑Off Cover on closure. Failure to maintain adequate insurance can result in immediate cessation of practice, regulatory sanctions and personal exposure for principals, making specialist advice and robust programme design essential. Our specialist advisors are here to ensure you remain compliant and support you.
