π€ ACCOUNTANTS, LAWYERS, CONSULTANTS: YOU'RE ONE MISTAKE AWAY π€
Your client follows your advice.
It goes wrong.
They lose $200,000.
They're suing YOU.
Professional Indemnity Insurance is literally the difference between:
- Insurance covering it
- OR paying for it yourself from your house
Real Brisbane example:
Accountant gave tax advice that turned out to be incorrect.
Client faced $45k ATO bill + penalties.
Client sued.
Without PI: Accountant personally liable
With PI: Insurance covered it
Cost? Accountants need minimum $2-$75 million cover depending on services and fees earned. Annual premium typically ranges from $1,500-$10,000+ depending on practice size and risk.
If you give professional advice (and you do), you MUST have PI.

- Management consultants
