Truly broad legal professional liability coverage for today’s modern law firm
At Attorney Protective, our policy contains broad definitions of insureds and legal services. The definition of insureds covers you, your associates, and those working on your behalf – even non-lawyer employees and independent contractors – in the course and scope of their duties (see specific AttPro policy language for details).
It’s our top priority at AttPro to ensure that the legal professional liability coverage we offer addresses modern strategies for your risk in an ever more challenging legal and business environment.
