Liability Insurance

A policy to protect our Affiliate Societies and its Members against damage that may be caused to another party (person or property). It is not the intent of this policy to protect the individual Society member from damage they may do or cause to themselves or to their own property. The EFMLS insurance is referred to as a “third party” policy, i.e. it is written to protect the Society and its members against loss for damage caused by or action of one of its Society members against another party. In other words it is insurance against loss resulting from liability (obligations) for injury or damage to the person or property of others.
