Free Contract Review Service

Much of your liability flows from what you promise in your contracts. We encourage you to work with your own legal counsel to negotiate and craft a reasonable contract for each project. If you encounter unusual insurance provisions or have a question about the insurability of a paragraph or page, we can review it and give you comments in 48 hours or less. We encourage you to send the whole contract with your contact information, policy number, and your questions clearly marked on the document.

The contract can be submitted to [email protected]. Be sure to copy your broker on the message.

Design Professionals Pre-claims Assistance

Our Design Professionals and Contractors standard policies have a provision for pre-claims assistance. If you are involved in a "Circumstance" that may lead to a claim, you should tell your broker and report the "Circumstance" to AXIS and the coverage on the policy under which you reported it will apply to any "Claim" that arises out of that incident. Our claims staff is empowered to provide you with advice and can even hire an expert witness or attorney, on our dime, if we deem it will strengthen your future defense.

The contract can be submitted to [email protected]. Be sure to copy your broker on the message.

AXIS wants you to be knowledgeable about the risks in your practice and how to manage them but does not dictate how you contract for or deliver your services.

The advice given by this program is for your consideration and is not mandatory. Different projects, clients, project delivery, geographies, people and disciplines may impact your decision to implement the loss prevention and mitigation measures discussed in articles and programs listed on this page.

We are not providing legal advice. Please contact your local attorney and broker to discuss proposed new procedures before you change how you contract for services or manage your practice.

Coverages and services noted on this page are subject to the terms of your policy and program.
