ISBA Mutual is proud to announce our new professional liability insurance program designed exclusively for the New Attorney. The New Attorney Program (N.A.P.) is designed to assist new-to-practice attorneys in establishing their private practice by providing professional liability insurance at an affordable price.

The program provides for three years of preset premiums for new attorneys who meet and continue to meet the program requirements. This application is for Solo Practitioners. This means you or your professional corporations do not employ any other lawyer and that you do not have a partner, co-owner, co-officer, associate, or member. In addition to the program requirements, the policy offers our limit of liability of $250,000 per claim and $500,000 in the aggregate with a $1,000 deductible.

To qualify for our New Attorney Program you will need to meet the following criteria:

1. Have been licensed to practice law for less than 3 years.
2. Claim-Free for the last 3 years.
3. Plan to practice as a solo practitioner.
4. Be a member of the Illinois State Bar Association.

If you meet these requirements you may proceed to completing the New Attorney Program Application. For additional information, please call Kurt Bounds at (800) 473-4722
