    Product Description

    An unintended result of having a busy practice is the possibility that a client, or someone else, might make a claim against you. Understanding what a Lawyers’ Professional Liability (LPL) Policy does and does not cover is of considerable importance. In addition, it is important to recognize what constitutes a claim or a potential claim which triggers a reporting requirement. Finally, it is important to understand how coverage is affected when a lawyer switches law firms or changes insurance carriers.

    Join our experts as we look at the ins and outs of your professional liability insurance policy. Understand the trends in legal malpractice claims in Massachusetts so you can better recognize your risks and coverage.
