It is appreciated that insurance won't be on your mind on a daily basis, however the time taken to arrange cover at renewal or following a new purchase is likely to impact on your already busy life particularly if you have a number of different policies insured with different companies at different times of the year.

The Bar Council has selected Oval Insurance Broking (Oval) to assist members by keeping the often onerous task of insurance as simple and effective as possible ensuring that more of your time is spent on other things.  Whether you've just been Called to the Bar or you're an established QC, Oval can assist in getting insurance that's right for you.

Management Liability Insurance: protecting personal liability

A new type of insurance policy has recently been launched that protects individuals against their Management Liability risks. 

The policy can offer the following exclusive benefits:    

  • insurance cover designed specifically to protect barristers' exposures to legal challenge risks, following wrongful management acts including:

    • employment practices - unfair dismissal, failure to employ or promote
    • civil or criminal suits
    • regulator proceedings or official investigations, and
    • deprivation of career opportunity

  • insurance cover that protects Heads of Chambers, Practice Managers, Senior Clerks, employees and pupils

  • exclusive policy - no other policy of its exact type available in the insurance marketplace, and

  • insurance wording designed specifically to protect members of the Bar.

For further information or advice on insuring your Management Liability risk exposures please contact Martin Wellbelove on 0121 237 1726 or email martin.wellbelove@theovalgroup.com
