Does Professional Liability Cover Missed Deadlines?

A missed deadline may be covered if it is an error in insured services that causes covered client loss; delay penalties may be excluded.

The Hartford cites missed technology product-development deadlines as an example, not a promise that every delay is insured.

Check service-level, liquidated-damages, and guarantee terms, plus claims-made reporting dates, retroactive date, and defense-cost limits. Ask how the form treats service credits and consequential loss.
