As a law search agent, having the right insurance is crucial to protect you when providing property and land law reports to conveyancing solicitors and their clients. Our professional indemnity insurance covers you if your search reports overlook legal issues, restrictions or third-party rights attached to a property that leads to financial loss for a buyer.
For example, you could be liable if a restrictive covenant you missed during searches means a new owner cannot extend their home as planned.
