Directors & Officers Liability Insurance

Directors and Officers Liability Insurance

Directors and Officers Liability Insurance is a serious consideration for any Director or Officer, to protect you against the expenses of a claim, lawsuit, or other legal situations against you or the business.

This may not be an insurance you would have at first considered, but in the many years we have been working in this industry, the team at Hamilton Robertson have seen a rise in the number of Directors seeking this kind of insurance.

And it is clear to see why such a policy is important. Businesses have to operate with a huge wealth of complex and changing regulations and laws to abide by.

It can be difficult to keep up with the changing laws, especially when you are busy with the day to day running of your company. However, you will know that as a director you are obliged by law to act within these laws and regulations and one slip up can cost you considerably.

The risk of having to face claims is even more prevalent and this threat is the same no matter what industry you are a part of.

Our Directors and Officers Liability Policy could typically include:

• Legal liability for insured persons arising from wrongful acts.
• Legal representation expenses.
• Reimbursement cover for the company.
• Investigation costs and expenses.
• Extradition proceedings costs.
• Criminal defence costs and expenses.
• Whistle blowing.

We can provide advice based on many years in this field, and always work honestly and openly with our clients to give them the right liability policy. And we have worked with many clients from a range of industries across Glasgow, Scotland and the UK – industries like hospitality, motoring, retail and construction – to develop complex Directors and Officers insurance policies that specifically suit that unique business.

This means that Directors of these companies can have the peace of mind that if anything were to happen, they have full cover in place to protect them. Having the correct insurance cover minimises disruption to your business.
