Well, without meaning to blow our own trumpet, we think Kingsbridge is a good option for your contractor insurance. Offering you all the cover that you could need from professional indemnity to cyber liability, IR35 to health care, all at a competitive price. Read on for the top reasons why we think you should consider buying with Kingsbridge.

A catalogue of extras

The cover doesn’t just stop at our packaged insurance policy, we also have a handful of additional extras if required.

IR35 Protect cover, which will protect you against taxes, interest and penalties from HMRC. Now your recruiter or client could be
liable for your status determination and any unpaid tax in an IR35 investigation, you may be asked to get cover that protects you and the supply chain. Plus, with IR35 Protect premium, you get unlimited access to the IR35 status tool…

IR35 status tool. Developed by our Head of Tax, Andy Vessey, our award-winning hybrid Kingsbridge Status Tool offers the best of both; an automated tool, with manual intervention by our expert IR35 team for any indeterminate results. Check the status of your engagement for just £50 plus VAT (or get unlimited use included with IR35 Protect Premium).

Legal expenses included in our IR35 protect cover, or if you don’t need IR35 cover, you can purchase legal expenses as an add-on to our insurance package. Cover includes fees relating to IR35 investigations, tax, PAYE and NIC investigations.

Cyber insurance for added protection in the digital world. Cyber-attacks are on the rise, with it being reported that scams jumped by 66% in lockdown last year. As the threat of a cyber-attack increases, get cover for ransomware attacks and help to get you back to work quickly if this happens to you.
