In short

What is professional indemnity insurance?

Professional indemnity (PI) insurance pays your legal defence costs and any compensation you owe when a client or other third party claims your advice, design or professional service was negligent and caused them a financial loss, subject to the policy terms. It is written on a claims-made basis: the policy in force when the claim is made responds, so cover must stay continuous, with run-off when you stop practising. Solicitors, ICAEW and ACCA accountants in practice, RICS-regulated firms, architects and FCA-authorised financial advisers and intermediaries must hold it under their regulators’ rules; many other firms need it because client contracts require it.

Why Apex

No portals, no ticket numbers

We work across 30+ insurer markets, including Lloyd’s via wholesale, tied to none — and we place cover one renewal at a time. You deal with a named broker on a direct line, not a queue. If your current PI experience is a login and a reference number, this is the other way to do it.

Who we cover

Cover we place

Professional indemnity for solicitors, architects and design & construct, accountants and bookkeepers, surveyors, engineers, IFAs, IT professionals and other professional services firms. We handle SRA and ARB minimum-terms requirements as standard.
