Whether it’s holistic therapy, alternative therapy or psychotherapy, mistakes and accidents can happen. The result of this could have a significant impact on your business, costing you thousands of pounds in legal fees and compensation payments.
Examples of claims include:
- A client alleges that a number of counselling sessions has not had the desired results they wanted. They take legal action against you to recoup their loss.
- While visiting your premises, a client slips on a rug and breaks their wrist. They take legal action, seeking compensation for their injury. This leaves you with hefty legal fees and compensation costs
This cover is usually considered essential protection for counsellors against a wide range of claims, and may be a requirement of your industry association. Limits are available from £1m to £5m
