According to our research*, real estate is one of the riskiest areas of law. As a practicing real estate legal professional, you navigate risk on a daily basis. During the course of your career, you may be faced with an errors and omissions claim, perhaps even after you retire. That’s why it’s mandatory to have errors and omissions insurance.

You take all the necessary precautions, however if you’re faced with a claim, using your errors and omissions coverage can be expensive, regardless of whether or not you are at fault.

That is, unless you are protected by FCT’s E&O Suite of Products – find out which one is best suited for your needs and register online.
