Because clients may allege that the advice or creative work caused a measurable loss. Professional liability insurance, also called Errors & Omissions (E&O) insurance, is intended to respond to claims of that kind. General liability separately addresses premises risks. Coverage varies by carrier and state.
Are advertising-related claims like copyright concerns covered?
Some policy forms address certain advertising injury allegations, but the scope depends heavily on the wording and exclusions. A licensed agent can explain what a given policy is intended to respond to.
