Questions We Hear Often

Law Firms insurance FAQs.

Do solo practitioners need the same coverage as larger firms?

The core coverages (malpractice, general liability, cyber) apply regardless of firm size, though limits and specific endorsements should be scaled to your practice area and client base.

Is cyber liability really necessary if we don't take credit card payments online?

Yes — law firms hold highly sensitive client information regardless of how they take payment, which makes them a common target and raises the stakes of any breach.

What's the difference between malpractice and general liability for a law firm?

Malpractice covers claims tied to your legal advice or representation; general liability covers physical injury or property damage at your office — both are typically necessary.

Do I need fiduciary or crime coverage if I manage a client trust account (IOLTA)?
