How do limitation-of-liability clauses relate to insurance?

Short answer

Counsel should explain the clause's legal effect; a professional should review relevant policy terms separately. Do not assume a contractual cap automatically caps every possible allegation or creates matching insurance protection.

An illustrative example

A service agreement caps some damages but has exceptions.

This is a hypothetical situation, not a real customer outcome or a coverage determination.

Three facts to prepare

• Cap and exceptions
• Covered activities
• Insurance limits

Use a brief, accurate summary. Separate confirmed facts from assumptions; keep passwords, identity numbers, private customer records and confidential documents out of an initial marketplace request.

A question to bring to the right professional

Which exceptions or obligations deserve separate review?

Use the real agreement and accurate service facts. Counsel reviews legal obligations; a licensed insurance professional reviews available terms and applicable forms. These roles should coordinate where necessary, but a contract requirement, certificate or vendor promise should not be treated as a coverage determination.
