This has been interpreted by the courts as an increased standard of care that
requires the professional to render services in the practice of his profession
that exercises the skill and knowledge normally possessed by members of that
profession in good standing in similar communities. Professional liability
insurance arose from this legal duty to clients and third parities for breach
of contract and negligence lawsuits.
Specialized applications/supplements are required for binding, however,
indications can be provided using other company applications. Although not
always required for indications, resumes, job histories or project lists,
sample contracts and brochures will assist in the underwriting process and will
typically result in better pricing and terms. Note that this is especially
important for new ventures when there is no experience to rely on and the
application reflects projections of income and services. Additional applications
for classes not currently on this site are available and will be faxed to you upon
request.
