Burns & Wilcox Canada Offers Innovative Errors and Omissions Coverage

Wide array of solutions help protect professionals

Toronto, ON [September 10, 2013] – Burns & Wilcox Canada today introduced a wide array of Errors and Omissions products, protecting business professionals from liability when clients claim they haven’t performed to expectation. This coverage begins where General Liability insurance ends and includes protection from claims of negligence, poor performance, errors in judgment and any omissions.

“Even the most talented professionals can make a mistake. A solid Errors and Omissions policy can prevent such mistakes from bankrupting an otherwise healthy firm, however many forgo obtaining this coverage” said Gary Hirst, National Director, Burns & Wilcox Canada. “Our Errors and Omissions product offers flexible limits to meet the specific needs of professional firms, meaning they only are paying for the coverage they need.”

Burns & Wilcox Canada offers this product to a wide array of professions, including but not limited to accountants, architects, consultants, insurance brokers, real estate brokers and tax preparers.

Errors and Omissions insurance will cover defense costs outside the limit available and can be combined with General Liability coverage under a policy package for many classes. Contingent Bodily Injury and Property Damage coverage are also available for many classes.

When clients work with Burns & Wilcox Canada, they have the confidence in knowing they have the security of an A.M. Best “A” rated carrier.
