Even if it isn’t mandatory, but your business provides a professional service and/or advice, you as the business owner have an obligation to your business’ financial health to purchase this coverage.

What does professional liability insurance do to protect my business in Newfoundland?

Having professional liability insurance is imperative to the operation of your business. Take these scenarios as an example:

  • As a forensic expert, you contract a portion of your work to a third-party, which is done improperly and the evidence in court becomes inadmissible. You’re sued for negligence by the party that hired you.
  • You hire an individual who ends up being incompetent. The client you hired the individual for sues you for negligence, alleging you to have failed to perform an adequate background check.

Professional liability insurance can help Newfoundland businesses in any of the above scenarios, and beyond. Discuss with Bullfrog Insurance’s experts if you’re still unsure.

How much is it to purchase professional liability insurance?

The average price someone might pay for their professional liability insurance in Newfoundland largely varies. No two industries or even two businesses will pay the same amount for their professional liability insurance in Newfoundland. Risk varies, so therefore your premiums will as well.
Essentially, it comes down to how likely you are to make a claim. That’s “risk.” Your risk goes up if you have a history of bad business transactions, dissatisfied clients, lawsuits, claims made, etc. Furthermore, it goes up if you operate in an industry that is considered “higher risk,” or if the average cost of a lawsuit in your industry is high or low. These are the factors that will play a role:

  • Your industry
  • What you offer or sell
  • Business experience
  • Coverage history
  • Size of business
  • Staff team
  • Quality/quantity of clients

Due to a client’s request, and for the first time, I needed Commercial general liability insurance, but I had no clue where to start. I googled “CGL” and up came Bullfrog Insurance. Even though my needs were relatively small, due to the client needs, they had to be very specific. Every question I asked was answered by the Bullfrog insurance representative, Raman, who was very helpful. And then, when I realized I needed more coverage, she didn’t flinch and let me know she’d get back to me right away. I got great coverage and all of it was done via email. Now I’ll know who to turn to for other small business insurance needs.
