Professional Services Insurance in Brighton
Brighton's professional services sector spans hundreds of consultancies, accountancy practices, legal firms, and specialist advisers—many clustered around the station quarter, New England Quarter, and North Laine. Whether you're a sole consultant or a 50-person practice, giving professional advice creates risks that only specialist insurance properly addresses.
Frequently asked questions
- Do Brighton freelancers need professional indemnity?
- If you provide advice or services that others rely on, PI is strongly recommended. Many clients and contracts require it. Even freelancers can face significant claims if their advice leads to financial losses.
- What PI limits do Brighton professional firms need?
- It depends on your profession and contracts. Common requirements range from £100,000 for sole traders to £5m+ for larger practices. Regulatory bodies often set minimum requirements.
- Is co-working space contents covered?
- Your own equipment may not be covered by the co-working space's insurance. We arrange portable equipment and contents cover that protects your assets regardless of where you're working.
- Do I need cyber insurance if I'm a sole consultant?
- Yes. If you handle any client data—emails, financial information, personal data—cyber insurance covers breach costs, regulatory fines, and client claims. The risk is the same whether you're a sole trader or a large firm.
- Can you help with SRA or FCA insurance requirements?
- Yes. We regularly arrange insurance that meets SRA, FCA, ICAEW, and other regulatory requirements for Brighton professional firms.
