    Insurance agents are required to obtain and maintain E&O in order to do business with markets and to protect them against possible problems with customers or claimants, but let’s not require attorneys to obtain and maintain Professional Liability for their Errors or Ommissions.

    “When the task force narrowly recommended against the Court’s adoption of a disclosure rule…”. Since when is 39-1 narrow?

    If you are shopping for an attorney ask them “do you carry professional liability insurance?” Then treat refusal to answer as a “no.” Problem solved.

    Reread it…The TASK FORCE narrowly recommended it. The BOARD vote was 39-1. Care to take another look & reconsider?
