Ask HN: Do you have business insurance as a freelancer?

  • We have a corp policy now but when I first started out I did pick up E&O as well as a couple other little coverages. Contracts (larger ones) require them and conducting events (trade shows, conferences) do as well. Shouldn't cost too much.

  • I believe it is always something you should consider to cover your back anyway. It doesn't have to be too expensive and you can at least use it to give a client some assurance.
