Building your tailored copywriters insurance policy

These core business insurance covers will help you to get started:

Professional indemnity insurance can be important for copywriters. This cover will pay out if a client suffers a loss due to your negligence or mistake. Some insurers also cover legal expenses that may be incurred in defending the case.

Business equipment cover covers the cost of replacing or fixing the equipment you use for your work such your computer. Simply Business can provide up to £10,000 of cover.

Public liability insurance is vital if you come into contact with members of the public during the course of your work. If you cause injury to a person or damage to their property while you are working, public liability insurance can cover the cost of a claim made against you. The generally accepted minimum level of public liability insurance is £2 million.

Details to look out for

• Make sure you understand any exclusions on your policy. You can read the policy documents online before you buy.
• Remember that equipment insurance will only cover you while your kit is in the UK. If you intend to take it abroad you will need a separate policy.
