IT consultant insurance requirements

Small business owners are almost always required to have insurance due to the risk of injury and property damage. You might need insurance to:

  • Get an IT consulting license in your state. It’s a good idea to check if you need a license in your state in order to get insurance.
  • Start work on a project. Clients might ask you to have active insurance — usually general liability or workers’ comp.
  • Hire employees. Most states require workers’ compensation insurance if you have employees.
  • Repair or replace commercial property you own or rent. Protect your inventory, equipment and even the building that you lease or own.

Frequently asked questions about IT consultant business insurance

Here are some of the most common questions we get about IT consultant business insurance. If you don’t find the answers you need here, our licensed, U.S.-based insurance advisors are standing by to help via online chat or phone.

Does NEXT Insurance offer workers' compensation coverage for IT consultants?

Yes, NEXT Insurance offers workers' compensation insurance, commercial property, and general liability coverage for IT consultants.

How does business insurance protect business consultants?

Our small business consulting insurance packages are designed to protect your business from a variety of risks and help you save money to grow your business. You’ll be protected from financial losses related to:

Damage to someone’s property

You accidentally break an expensive photocopier while visiting a client. The general liability coverage in your insurance package would help pay for a replacement.

Accidents that hurt someone

A client trips on your office’s front steps and injures their shoulder. Your general liability coverage would also come into play here by helping to pay for medical costs and legal fees.

Professional mistakes

You recommend business software that ends up having major security issues. Professional liability coverage for consulting businesses (also known as E&O insurance for business consultants) helps you defend yourself if you’re accused of making a mistake that causes someone to lose money.

Workplace injuries

You stumble and sprain your ankle while carrying supplies into a client’s office. Workers’ compensation coverage with business owner’s coverage can help cover medical bills and lost wages. Workers’ comp is usually required by law if you have employees.

Injuries and damage involving your business vehicles

You dent a nearby car when pulling out of a client’s parking lot. Commercial auto coverage will help pay for the repairs. This coverage is also usually required by law for business-owned vehicles.

Damage to your own property

Thieves break into and vandalize the office space you lease. Commercial property insurance can help with replacement or repair costs if your owned or leased property is damaged due to a covered event, such as a burst water pipe, fire or vandalism.
