Professional Saver’s Insurance for Claims Adjudicators


Our standard cover is:

  • £1 million cover for public and products liability (with an option to increase to £2 million, £5 million or £10 million)
  • £10,000 cover for any financial loss (£50K cover optional)
  • Worldwide liability cover for temporary work abroad for up to 14 days (excluding the USA and Canada)

Why Claims Adjudicators Need Specialist Insurance

As a claims adjudicator or loss assessor, your assessments decide the outcome of disputed insurance claims, often involving large sums of money and complex, contractual situations. However, mistakes can happen in such cases, and just one error leading to an incorrect claims judgement could leave you facing substantial legal challenges and compensation pay-outs.

Our tailored public liability policies give you complete peace of mind throughout the adjudication process, that any disputes, injuries or financial loss claims caused by your decisions will be dealt with by your insurer.

What Is Adjudicator Insurance?

Adjudicator insurance protects professionals who weigh up disputes between parties and deliver binding judgments or recommendations to resolve conflicts as an impartial third party. Adjudication covers:

  • Reviews of arguments and documentation
  • Interviews to establish facts from each party
  • Research into codes of practice and precedent
  •  Final determinations delivered to plaintiff and defendant

However, liability risks arise from:

  • Perceived bias skewed to favour one side unfairly
  • Overlooking evidence or testimonies affecting ruling
  • Errors interpreting key technical specifications tied to disputes
  • Breaches of confidential hearings or submissions

What Does Claims Adjudicator Insurance Cover?

Our adjudicator policies provide protection against:

Public Liability

Covers any injury or property damage caused while:

  • Visiting sites to assess damaged items, property or equipment related to an insurance claim
  • Attending third party sites for investigative/evidence gathering purposes
  • Liaising with claimants at their home/office during the disputes process

For example, accidentally knocking over a priceless vase when visiting a household or business to investigate a flood claim.

Professional Indemnity

This provides protection if your claim judgement is successfully challenged or overturned,  resulting in substantial financial loss for the parties involved. For example, if deciding a complex business interruption or home contents claim is invalid but this decision is overturned on appeal by a regulator or ombudsman, leaving the insurer or claimant facing a large pay-out.

We cover legal costs, compensation, damages and claimant loss of income in scenarios like this.

Legal Expenses Insurance

This pays for  your own legal costs and provides specialist legal advice/representation if you face civil claims alleging negligence or unfairness relating to your work.

The policy helps defend you by covering lawyer fees and potential settlement monies against demands for large sums of compensation if errors have unfairly deprived claimants of expected policy pay-outs.

Cover For Contractors & Temporary Staff

Our adjudicator insurance policies extend to cover any temporary staff, freelancers or subcontractors you assign investigatory or decision making work to. This ensures you and any external loss assessors, liability investigators or legal experts you use are fully protected against claims arising from their assessment decisions or site visit accidents.

Additional Covers for Adjudicators:

We also offer further protections like:

Commercial Legal Expenses

Provides specialist legal advice and covers costs of certain business-related legal disputes such as breach of contract allegations or employment tribunals.

Office Equipment Insurance

Covers damage and theft of office equipment like computers, tablets and phones used to review claims evidence, compile investigation reports and communicate judgements to insurers/claimants.

FAQs

Adjudicator Insurance FAQs

Claims adjudicators need specialist insurance because their claim decisions often involve large sums of money and can be legally challenged if errors, oversight or unfairness occurs. This leaves them vulnerable to professional negligence and financial loss claims which could cripple them without adequate insurance.

Adjudicator errors can also cause site visit injuries or property damage that leads to substantial payouts.

  • Examples of disputed claim losses we cover include:Professional Indemnity:
    • Deciding a complex business interruption claim is excessively inflated when it later transpired this judgement was too harsh, leaving the insurer with a £2 million payout to the policyholder. Our cover protects you against such overturned decisions.
    • Assessing a home contents insurance claim to be fraudulent but this decision is later deemed unfair due to lack of evidence. Our policy would cover legal costs and potential damages if you were sued for negligence by the aggrieved customer.

    Public Liability:

    • Accidentally spilling coffee on a claimant’s laptop when visiting their home to inspect fire damage. Our public liability insurance covers property damage scenarios like this.
    • Not securing cables adequately leading to someone tripping over and breaking an arm. The policy covers injury claims.

 

We cover claim adjudication and settlement services related to:

  • Business interruption and commercial property damage insurance disputes
  • High value household structural and contents policies
  • Complex injury, professional liability and public liability lawsuits
  • Life, critical illness and income protection policy claims
