Engineering & Science

You build things that work. Until someone says they don’t.

Software that crashes. A structure that fails inspection. Research findings that get challenged. When your technical expertise is on the line, professional liability is the only thing between you and a six-figure claim.

Important: Professional liability covers financial losses from your professional work — it does not cover bodily injury or property damage. Those require a separate general liability policy.
E&O vs. General Liability – What’s the difference?

Unintended code infringement

Your code ships. Then a client says it broke something.

A deployment introduces a bug that costs a client revenue. Your AI model generates output that leads to a bad business decision. An integration fails and takes their system offline. Tech professionals underestimate E&O risk because the work feels abstract, until the invoice for damages arrives.

Deployment failures and downtime — E&O covers claims when your code, config, or migration causes client business interruption.

Cyber liability is existential — $250K coverage for breaches, data exposure, and security incidents targeting your systems.

Enterprise clients require it — you can’t sign an MSA without proof of professional liability insurance.

Your calculations carry real-world consequences

A structural analysis gets challenged. A mechanical system underperforms. An HVAC design doesn’t meet code. When your professional stamp is on the drawings, you’re personally liable for the outcome — and general liability won’t cover professional judgment errors.

Design and calculation errors — E&O covers claims when your engineering work doesn’t perform as specified.

Unintended pollution event — when your work accidentally causes a contaminant release unrelated to your scope of services, this coverage is designed to respond.

Developers and GCs require COIs — you won’t get on a project without proof of professional liability insurance.

Health data in clinical research

Your findings inform critical decisions. What if they’re wrong?

A lab analysis produces a false positive that triggers costly action. A consulting scientist’s recommendation leads to a regulatory violation. Research methodology gets challenged in litigation. When organizations rely on your scientific judgment, the stakes are higher than a peer review.

Flawed analysis or findings — E&O covers claims when your research, testing, or advisory work causes client financial harm.

Data integrity and confidentiality — cyber liability protects research data, client samples, and proprietary findings.

Expert witness and testimony risk — coverage extends to professional opinions given in legal or regulatory settings.
