Errors and Omissions insurance — also called Professional Liability insurance — is designed for one specific scenario: a client claims your professional advice, service, or work product caused them a financial loss, and they sue you for it.

It doesn't matter whether you actually made an error. In New Jersey, clients and customers can — and regularly do — file professional liability claims against service providers even when no negligence occurred. What matters is that someone is pointing a finger at your business. Without E&O coverage, you're paying a lawyer out of pocket just to defend yourself.

RFK Insurance helps professionals and service businesses across North Jersey and the Jersey Shore find the right E&O policy for their industry, their client base, and their budget.

What Does E&O Insurance Cover?

Errors and Omissions insurance specifically covers financial losses your clients claim resulted from your professional services. A standard E&O policy typically covers:


Errors & Mistakes

A miscalculation, a wrong date, a missed specification — even small clerical errors can trigger significant client losses. E&O covers claims arising from mistakes made by you, your employees, or your subcontractors.

🔇
Our History

Sometimes it's not what you did — it's what you failed to do. If a client claims you left something out, missed a deadline, or failed to deliver a promised service, your E&O policy responds.
 

⚠️
Negligence Claims

Whether the claim is that you gave bad advice, failed to exercise professional judgment, or delivered substandard work, E&O covers your legal defense and any resulting damages up to your policy limit.
 

⚖️
Legal Defense Costs

Attorney fees, court costs, and expert witness fees are covered — even if the claim against you is completely without merit. In NJ, legal defense alone can run tens of thousands of dollars.
 

🤝
Settlements & Judgments

If a client's claim results in a negotiated settlement or a court judgment, your E&O policy pays up to your coverage limit — protecting your business assets and personal finances.
 

🕐
Prior Acts Coverage

Also called retroactive coverage, this protects you from claims arising from work completed before your current policy was issued — as long as it's back to a pre-agreed date. Essential when switching carriers.

What's Included in an E&O Policy

RFK Insurance can help you build an E&O policy with the features that matter for your profession. Standard benefits include:

  • 💳Monthly payment options— spread your premium across the year to better manage cash flow.
  • 👥Coverage for all staff— salaried employees, hourly workers, temporary staff, and subcontractors are all covered under your policy.
  • 🕐Prior acts / retroactive coverage— protects against claims arising from work completed before your current policy began, back to a pre-agreed date. Critical when switching carriers.
  • 🌍Worldwide coverage— as long as the claim is filed in the U.S., a U.S. territory, or Canada, your E&O policy responds regardless of where the work was performed.
  • ⚡Claims responsiveness— fast response from your carrier when a claim is filed, because delays in professional liability situations can make things worse.
  • 🔧Industry-tailored coverage— a real estate agent's E&O looks different from an IT consultant's. We build your policy around the specific risks of your profession.
  • 📄Contract compliance— many NJ clients and contracts require vendors to carry E&O insurance. Your policy can be structured to satisfy standard contract insurance requirements.
