[Hidden-tech] Liability Insurance

[Rob Laporte]

Hi All,

I explored errors and omission insurance a few years ago. It was expensive,
to the tune of $4500 per year, and required all kinds of procedures and
sign-offs with clients. It was like the insurance company wanted to partly
manage my business. I decided to try to avoid work that would create legal
liabilities, notably making e-commerce systems where our coding has anything
to do with credit card processing. We have dealt with a few such jobs since,
and I make sure to have a specific liability exclusion in our contracts.
This is an issue of general interest to all firms that build websites.

Best Regards,

Bruce,

I recently got a quote from Kyle Sullivan at   John M Glover. He was really
reasonable, and able to source rates through a bunch of different companies
to find me the lowest. I will definitely be switching to him when my current
policy is ready to renew.
