Insurance from market leaders

The Professional Indemnity and Companion Liability policies are arranged with reputable insurers who have stood the test of time in the New Zealand insurance market. Whilst some insurers have entered and exited the insurance market for legal practitioners, NZI and AIG have continued to support the profession, providing extensive insurance protection to Justitia members.

Justitia Board of Management

The Board of Directors of Justitia are all Legal Practitioners, geographically spread throughout New Zealand to bring a diversity of perspective to the leadership.

The Board elects the Chairperson and appoints the secretary, insurance consultants and auditors. All insured members of the Incorporated Society are invited to an Annual General Meeting.
