Whether you are a freelance writer, published author or copywriter, it’s important to have the right level of insurance to help you face the modern demands of the profession, which is why our copywriter insurance is so widely used.

Your work is unique and you should find an insurance policy that reflects this. With Caunce O’Hara you can be assured your individual circumstances will be taken into account when building your policy.

The protection afforded by insurance that has been specifically catered to professionals within content based professions could prove invaluable if a situation ever arose that put your freelance career under threat. At Caunce O’Hara, we understand the specific insurance needs of professionals who create and distribute content, and have full knowledge of how they differ from the needs of other industries. For this reason our freelance writer insurance is very popular with industry professionals.

What Insurance Do I Need?

Build your custom content professional insurance policy. We offer:

  • Professional Indemnity Insurance

    Professional indemnity insurance covers you in the event that a client or customer takes legal action against you for whatever reason. As you’ll be aware, working on a contract basis doesn’t afford you the same protection as a standard employee, meaning that you’re responsible for providing for yourself should times get tough. Professional indemnity insurance can protect you from issues like alleged copyright infringement, or legal protection for missed deadlines or missing client briefs should you ever need it.

  • Business Combined Insurance

    Our business combined insurance is specially designed for content professionals to protect you and your business from loss and claims against you. Our business combined insurance includes public liability insurance, office contents insurance, employer’s liability insurance and even directors and officers insurance. This provides protection from a number of threats to your business that might put your livelihood in jeopardy. If a member of the public makes a claim against you, or if you hire an employee and they get injured while working for you, you will be covered for all legal expenses.

  • Personal Accident & Sickness Insurance

    As a freelance professional or sole trader, you won’t be afforded the same level of protection if you are unable to work because of illness or injury. The personal accident and sickness insurance offered by Caunce O’Hara can help to keep your writing career on track no matter what happens. You’ll never have to worry about losing your income if you are unable to work due to sickness or injury.

  • Travel Insurance

    Writers and freelance content professionals will often travel much more for work, so it makes sense to have a comprehensive travel insurance plan in place. This will protect you and your family on business and personal trips throughout the UK and around the world. Whether you are injured on the way to meet a client on the other side of the country or if your case goes missing on a family holiday, our travel insurance for writers and content professionals will ensure you are covered.

  • Tax Enquiry & Legal Expenses

    It’s easy to make a mistake when filing your taxes, but it isn’t quite as easy to clear up this mistakes once you are facing a tax enquiry. Our tax enquiry insurance will ensure that you aren’t out of pocket as the result of an issue with HMRC. Simply getting good legal advice can be expensive, which is why all Caunce O’Hara customers have access to a free legal advice hotline 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
