Professional Liability

We focus on Professional Liability insurance for law firms, insurance agents, accountants, architects and engineers and a wide range of other miscellaneous US professional service providers.

Most of our business is written 100% on behalf of the Catlin Syndicate although we are happy to participate on coinsurance placements. Our maximum line capability is $10 million. We mainly write primary insurance layers, and we trade from the Catlin box on the ground floor at Lloyd’s.
