Professional indemnity insurance is an essential purchase for professionals who are advising or offering a service as part of their business and no more is this the case than for Architects. Working with Manchester Underwriting Management (Underwriters to AMLIN) we've used our experience to develop a bespoke professional indemnity (PI) facility for Low Fee earning and part time Architects. We recognise some Architectural Practices operate at the lower fee end of the scale either because they prefer to operate as one or two person operations or because the Architect only carries out a small amount of annual fee work possibly in addition to an employed position where their liabilities are catered for by their employer but not their out of office activities. Designed for Low fee earner Architects including, but not restricted to, new business start ups our scheme provides cover limits consummate to those suggested by the ARB with up to a 25% discount for new business start-ups or where not retro cover is required. The scheme provides cover based on civil liability wording with limits from £250,000 each and every claim with legal defence cost in addition and with a £500 policy excess that is not applicable to the defence costs. DownloadsArchitects Low Fee Earners SchemeProfessional Indemnity InsuranceWe recognise not all Architects earn large fees nor undertake large and complex projects so in order to allow these firms or individuals to operate with a robust Professional Indemnity Insurance at a realistic cost Hammond Professional Indemnity have negotiated a scheme designed specifically for Architects and Architect firms earning less than £100,000 which is underwritten Manchester Underwriting (Amlin Insurance). The premium offered is designed and aims to be lower than rates generally offered in the market as it is targeted at specific sizes of firms Cover is comparable to other policies offered in the markets and is issued with the ARB requirements in mind. The policy meets the demands and needs for Professional Indemnity insurance as outlined within the attached declarations.
If your fees have exceeded £100,000 in any of your last five financial years, you will not automatically qualify for the scheme and the policy may need to be individually underwritten but may be accepted at normal terms.
