Does Professional Liability Cover Copyright Infringement?

Some E&O forms exclude copyright, while certain technology E&O products add limited IP protection; the policy wording controls.

These offerings differ and do not establish a general E&O grant for all copyright disputes.

Check whether the form covers defense for software, open-source, media, or client content claims and what services qualify. Review prior-acts and knowledge terms, territory, and client indemnity exclusions.
