Building your web designers' insurance policy

The covers you need will depend on the nature of your business, but these should help you get started:

Professional indemnity insurance covers the cost if a client suffers a financial loss as a result of faulty work or negligent advice on your part, and they make a claim against you for damages. Without professional indemnity insurance, you may find it difficult to get business with larger firms.

Public liability insurance covers the cost of claims made against you from people who have suffered injury or have had their property damaged because of you. Claims of this kind can be financially crippling, and can arise from something as simple as a trailing laptop lead.

Details to look out for

• Where possible, ask potential clients what level of professional indemnity insurance they expect, and buy your policy accordingly.
• Make sure you read and understand any exclusions on your policy. Simply Business offers you the chance to read the policy documents in full before you buy.
• If you do any work for public sector clients, you are likely to require a higher level of public liability insurance. Check with your clients first to ensure that you have sufficient cover.
