What is consulting insurance?
Consulting insurance (the different types of insurance available to consultants) helps protect businesses against various risks, like errors in the professional services provided, customer property damage claims, broken equipment, and more.
Why do California consultants need insurance?
California is the largest economy in the United States, with over 4.2 million small businesses operating in The Golden State.
Consultants may find plenty of work helping these businesses grow and achieve their goals. However, there is also the potential for unhappy clients, accidents, and other events that could result in expensive lawsuits and unplanned bills.
That’s why many California consultants have business insurance. Depending on the coverages you choose, you could be financially protected against common risks, such as errors in your work, alleged negligence, customer property damage, business interruptions, and more.

Types of insurance for consultants
BizInsure offers tailored consultant insurance in California to meet your needs.
Professional Liability insurance
Negligence, breach of contract, errors and omissions in the services provided, and missed deadlines are common risks faced by California consultants. These claims can be expensive to manage, even if the allegations are untrue.
Professional Liability insurance* could help you manage legal costs if an unhappy client believes your consulting services were not up to industry standards.
General Liability Insurance
Consultants often work in their client’s offices or business premises. If you accidentally damaged a client’s property or caused someone injury, it could be costly to set things right. General Liability insurance* could help you manage these types of claims.
In California, it is common for clients to ask consultants to obtain General Liability insurance before they begin working.
Business Owner’s Policy (BOP)
Consultants often rely on computers, phones, printers and other devices to do their job. A Business Owner’s Policy (BOP) is a convenient and affordable way to protect these items. A BOP can also be customized to include general liability, business interruption, and other types of coverage for common risks.
Workers’ Compensation insurance
Protecting your employees on the job is the law in California. Workers’ Compensation insurance* is required for all California businesses with one or more employees, including consulting firms.
How much does consultant insurance cost in California?
