E&O Insurance

We offer discounted liability (E&O) and personal (home & auto) insurance from LMS PROLINK to our Accredited and Associate Members. The insurance solutions are comprehensive and affordable, allowing members to save as much or more in insurance as the cost of their OAFM membership.

OAFM's board conducted a comprehensive review of the E&O insurance available to the OAFM members. The following criteria was used for review and selection of the insurance provider list:

OAFM Members need better Value. They required better coverage at a competitive price
The E&O Insurance should be available for the services provided by the OAFM members
The broker should have sufficient capacity to effectively service OAFM members in a timely manner.
Broker should have experience in managing and administering professional liability programs
Broker should have access to a multiple array of insurance carriers that specialize in professional liability insurance in Canada.
Broker should be able to provide value added service to OAFM member by providing E&O education and additional insurance products to supplement their needs, and at preferred pricing.

After a comprehensive search, the OAFM board is pleased to announce a selection of insurance brokers for new and current members to choose from for their insurance needs.
