Tattooist Insurance — Tailored To You

Treatment risk tattooist insurance

In today’s no-win, no-fee world, it’s easy for a client to make a claim against you. Even if you are proven to be not at fault, it can be a costly business to get to that decision. Treatment risk insurance protects you if a client claims an injury or infection against you. It covers your legal fees to defend your case and any compensation awarded.

Public liability tattooist insurance

Going under the needle may have its risks, but don’t forget your clients are also at risk of injury simply by tripping over something or slipping on a wet floor in your studio. If they hurt themselves or their property is damaged in some way by something to do with your business, they can sue you for damages. Public liability insurance covers your legal fees for these claims against you.

Other insurance options to protect your tattoo shop business

Taking out cover to protect you from potential legal proceedings is only one part of your tattoo shop insurance. We can build you a bespoke package to suit every need of your business. This could include:

Employer’s liability insurance. This is a legal requirement if you employ any members of staff, even if they only work part-time.

Business premises insurance. This covers you for any damage to your business premises through fire, flood, vandalism etc.

Equipment insurance. This cover gives you peace of mind that you can go out and replace any equipment quickly. For peace of mind, your business can continue trading.

Personal injury cover. This pays out if you suffer an accident that prevents you from working for a period of time.
