with better questions.
These are areas to explore with a licensed provider. The exact cover, exclusions, limits, and availability depend on your circumstances.
Errors & omissions
Ask about allegations of missed deadlines, administrative mistakes, or failures in client work.
Cyber & privacy
Discuss access to client accounts, confidential files, and incident response.
Business equipment
Explore laptops and devices used at home, coworking spaces, or while travelling.
Access comes with responsibility.
A scheduling error causes a client to miss a deadline. Separately, a compromised login raises questions about responsibility for the client’s data.

Good questions.
Worth asking.
Will general liability address an administrative mistake?
A client’s financial-loss allegation may raise professional liability questions rather than premises liability. Describe the mistake scenario and ask how the proposed policies respond.
Are overseas clients automatically accepted?
No assumption should be made. Declare client countries, contract jurisdictions and subcontractor locations, then ask about territory and jurisdiction wording.
Does a client’s cyber policy protect my business?
It may primarily protect the client. Ask how responsibility is allocated in the contract and what your own policy addresses when your access is involved.
