As an Everywhen family therapy insurance policyholder, you will have access to a 24-hour legal helpline. If you are concerned about any legal difficulties relating to you or your practice, you can speak with an expert about your legal position. This does not provide full legal expenses cover to initiate a claim.

Public liability insurance for family therapists

Family therapy insurance includes public liability cover which provides cover for the cost of compensating for legal liability to a third party resulting from injury to a member of the public while on your premises, or your business inadvertently causing damage to property in the course of your work. Depending on your needs, you can choose between £1 million, £2 million or £5 million in cover. Family therapy insurance does not cover intentional acts that cause injury to third parties.

Family therapy product liability insurance

If you need to use, recommend or sell products as part of your job as a family therapist, you are covered for utilising, advising or selling products during family therapy, if these products cause any injury, death, illness or disease. However, this excludes products that have been changed – e.g. blended, mixed or tampered with.

Family therapy insurance including professional indemnity coverage

Professional indemnity insurance covers legal and compensation costs that arise from claims made against a professional for alleged negligence, errors, or omissions in the course of their work. This may include claims for financial loss, damage to reputation, or breach of confidentiality.
