What risks do Architects need to manage?

As a firm of professional Architects, your reputation can take years to develop and only a few moments to lose. For any business, having a comprehensive insurance programme in place is vital, however the professional services and expert advice you provide can also make you vulnerable to legal challenges and claims of professional negligence. Having the right insurance cover in place ensures you mitigate your financial risk with confidence, giving you peace of mind should the unexpected occur.

Honestly, your service was amazing. Really responsive team members, which was even more impressive as it was between Christmas and New Year. Best service I’ve received for any product in a long time.
