Liability Insurance for Publishers and Printers

Publishers and printers are under a lot of stress and pressure on a daily basis and this is why it is imperative for them to acquire publishers and printers professional liability insurance. E&O publishers and Printers insurance can protect the aver publisher in a variety of different situations. Unfortunately, it will not protect you against all the risks that you are faced with and this is why any insurance executive will tell you to also invest in commercial general liability insurance. With both of these policies in place, you will without ensure the overall longevity and protection of your employees and business.

Since publishers are under immense amounts of pressure to meet tight deadlines without making any errors, it can make the whole job extremely stressful. If you make a misprint that financially harms your client, they are going to come seeking reprimands from you, and this is where PLI publishers and printers comes into play. Commercial general liability insurance serves a different purpose, as it offers protection against slander and copyright infringement. If someone claims that you stole their ideal or printed something that slandered their good name, you could be facing major consequences that might result in an expensive lawsuit. In these situations, CGL insurance will come into play.

We recommend having $1,000,000 per claim PLI Coverage for the professionals and coverage of $2,000,000 per claim CGL coverage for the business’ physical exposures.
