Endorsed by the Authors Guild

Recognizing the challenges authors encounter with traditional insurance providers, the Authors Guild is partnering with Dinghy and NSM Insurance Group to offer members easy access to low-cost, high-quality coverage specifically tailored to meet your needs.

COMPREHENSIVE MEDIA & PROFESSIONAL LIABILITY

Crafted specifically for the risks freelance writers face, coverage includes protection against allegations of defamation (libel and slander), misappropriation of name or likeness, copyright infringement, plagiarism, public disclosure of private facts, errors and omissions, and more. That’s not to mention no-cost add-ons. Plus, your policy extends worldwide, providing coverage wherever work takes you. 

Peace of mind — delivered in minutes

Forget lengthy insurance applications and manuscript reviews. In minutes, you can get a quote and buy a policy online. Policy documents are generated instantly so you can provide proof of insurance in a snap. And if you ever need to submit a claim, you can do it right on the web, 24/7. It’s really that easy.

Not only is your policy underwritten by an A+ rated insurance provider, being a policyholder also means you have an expert team of lawyers on your side who specialize in media liability claims. Whether you have questions about your coverage or concerns about a claim, our team is here for you.
