Contractors Professional Liability Q&A

Why choose KTL for Contractors Professional Liability? add

KTL has insured over 1,000 businesses across nine states since 2005. We partner exclusively with AM Best A-rated carriers, shop the market on every renewal, and assign a dedicated specialist who knows your business inside and out.

Are KTL Insurance carriers financially strong? add

Yes. We exclusively place coverage with insurers rated "A" (Excellent) or better by AM Best. This ensures financial strength to pay claims and provides peace of mind that your coverage will be there when you need it.

What does Contractors Professional Liability cover that general liability doesn't? add

Professional liability (E&O) covers claims arising from the advice, services, or designs you provide — financial losses your clients suffer from your work. General liability only covers bodily injury and property damage, not pure financial loss.

Do I need Contractors Professional Liability if I have a contract clause? add

Contract indemnification doesn't replace insurance — it just specifies who's liable. Your professional liability policy is what actually pays the defense costs and judgments. Many client contracts require proof of E&O insurance as a condition of work.
