We're about to start our book-keeping firm. We'd be interested to know the different types of coverage that we might need in order to protect ourselves from unforeseen risks.

It's good that you guys are aware of the consequences. Your mistakes might just cause some financial losses for your clients and may compel them to file lawsuits against you.

Professional indemnity is the standard insurance coverage that most professionals have around us. All charges associated with lawsuits and claim settlements are covered under it. It also protects from copyright violations.

You won't need Public liability insurance if you're running your book-keeping business from home. You'll need it if you're required to visit places e.g. your client's business office or his home. Most professionals today are paying for this coverage even though it's not a legal requirement.
