Professional indemnity insurance

In force from 28 April 2009

If you are a solicitor in private practice, you are required to take out and maintain PII in accordance with the Solicitors' Indemnity Insurance Rules, by 1 October each year, but current market forces mean it can be difficult to obtain. This practice note describes PII requirements in the current market and details how you should apply, alongside related issues.

The current version clarifies points 2 and 3 in section 8.2.1.
