Crosby’s AI Gets Its Own Malpractice Umbrella

Crosby, an AI law firm, has bought malpractice insurance for its artificial agents, addressing a regulatory vacuum as major insurers grapple with the risks of artificial intelligence.

The move underscores a nascent gap in coverage for digital legal assistants. Insurers are still figuring out how to underwrite policies for non‑human entities that can produce legal advice.

Traditional malpractice policies cover human errors such as missed deadlines or billing mistakes. Extending coverage to algorithms raises new questions about liability and underwriting.

By securing a policy, Crosby signals that the market is beginning to respond to these challenges, even if the premium may eventually show up on a client’s invoice.
