A professional in any field can be sued for an actual or alleged error or omission. Their personal fortune is on the line when they are named in a professional liability lawsuit, and they may not have been responsible for the alleged mistake. In other words, an individual could not hide behind the corporate veil for an error or omission.
E&O claims do not tend to be frequent, but they can be severe. For this reason, professionals might not know they have the exposure. Having insurance to cover E&O can also be used for the professional’s marketing efforts.
