Professional Indemnity (PI) Insurance

Attorneys Professional Indemnity Insurance.

Carl Greaves Insurance Brokers offers Professional Indemnity (PI) Insurance cover for admitted attorneys. We provide “top up” cover to bridge the gap between the automatic PI cover offered by the Attorneys Insurance Indemnity Fund (AIIF) (www.aiif.co.za) and their potential PI cover requirements. The AIIF fund provides attorneys operating in South Africa with automatic PI cover of between R1 562 500 and R3 125 000 depending on the number of Partners/Directors within their firm.

The amount of this Professional Indemnity is automatically determined as a function of the number of partners in the law firm, we find that it is seldom sufficient to adequately hedge all risks faced in the legal profession today. Prudent risk management therefore dictates that attorneys should take out top-up cover for claims in excess of the automatic threshold.

Fidelity Guarantee (FG) Insurance

In addition to negligence claims, law firms also face the risk of employee theft.  Fidelity Guarantee product is designed to protect law firms from such loss and covers the insured for loss as a result of theft of their staff members, which ultimately causes loss to the practice. You have the option of asking to be covered in respect of all employees, specific employees, or specific job functions within the firm. In this way we manage a realistic premium for the cover you require.
Misappropriation of Trust Funds

Misappropriation of trust funds is another area where a law firm operating in South Africa may have an exposure and run the risk of loss. As the name suggests, this cover protects the firm from theft/misappropriation of Trust fund monies by Directors or employees of a legal practice, from trust accounts. Our underwriters have structured this line of cover as a combined Professional Indemnity, Fidelity Guarantee and Misappropriation policy.
