Sir Richard - currently a solicitor firm cannot limit their liability via a contractual term. If you could we'd all do so and insurance would not be needed.

Presumably, if someone set up as a freelance solicitor and did not have insurance, then they'd have to settle any claims, or costs of any representative, personally. If they went bust the claim would then be against the Indemnity Fund.

I'm all for the idea of freelance solicitors but only if they are required to have a minimum level of PII.
