LIU Lawyers Program Features
We consider a broad range of areas of practice. Our programs focus on primary insurance for small to medium-sized law firms, with an open brokerage minimum premium of $25,000 and a minimum deductible of $25,000.
Primary policies can vary among states but generally include the following:
• Broad definition of professional services
• Multiple extended reporting period (tail) options
• Personal injury coverage
• Innocent insured coverage
• Worldwide coverage
• Reduced deductible for arbitrated or mediated claims
• Coverage for defense of disciplinary proceedings
• Generous loss of earnings coverage for appearing at trials and hearings
• Automatic coverage for “of counsels,” independent contractors and per diem lawyers
• Awareness provision
Liberty International Underwriters is the marketing name for the
broker-distributed specialty lines business operations of Liberty Mutual Group. Certain coverage may be provided by a surplus lines insurer. Surplus lines insurers do not generally participate in state guaranty funds and insureds are therefore not protected by such funds.
