The Company began trading in June 2008, acting as an insurance broker predominately providing solicitors’ professional indemnity The Company began to develop alternative products in order to diversify Its business, which included public liability insurance cover in respect of roofers and scaffolders The roofer and scaffolding line of business was headed up by one particular employee who secured business for the Company through previously held clients The alternative products remained smail tn comparison to the solicitors’ professional indemnity cover

The Administrators have been advised by the director of the Company that in 2011 the Company secured an insurer, through a managing general agent (‘MGA’), exclusively for a solicitors’ professional indemnity scheme which resulted in the Company being one of the largest providers in this particular market The Administrators have also been advised that solicitors’ professional indemnity made up approximately 95% of the Company's overall business at this time
