Common Questions

Frequently asked questions

Quick answers from our brokers. Anything else, we're a phone call away.

What is professional liability insurance and who needs it in California?

Professional liability insurance — also called errors & omissions (E&O) or malpractice insurance — covers claims alleging financial harm from your professional services or advice. Any professional who provides specialized services, advice, or expertise to clients needs it: attorneys, CPAs, doctors, dentists, engineers, architects, consultants, tech firms, real estate professionals, and many others.

Is professional liability insurance required in California?

Requirements vary by profession. Some California licensing boards mandate coverage. Many industries require it contractually — enterprise clients, government agencies, and institutional buyers typically require proof of coverage before engaging.

How is PRIA different from going directly to an insurance company?

PRIA is an independent broker — we represent you, not any single carrier. We submit your information to multiple A-rated carriers simultaneously and present you with competitive quotes. Going direct to a single carrier means you only see one price and one set of terms. PRIA shows you the market.

What limits of professional liability should I carry in California?

The right limits depend on your profession, client contracts, the financial stakes of your services, and any regulatory minimums. Many professionals start with $1M per claim / $1M aggregate. Higher-risk professions or those serving large institutional clients often need $2M, $3M, or higher.

Can I get professional liability insurance if I've had a claim?

Yes. Prior claims don't automatically disqualify you from coverage — they affect pricing and sometimes carrier choice. PRIA works with markets that understand how to evaluate and price firms with claims history.
