About FA Risk Management:
Originally founded in 1989 as Higher Plateau, a continuing education company, it ultimately shifted its focus to litigation prevention exclusively for Financial Professionals and was renamed Financial Advisors Legal Association (FA Legal). There were so many gaps in Errors and Ommissions Insurance that there had to be a better way to preserve the industry from the staggering rise in legal claims. So in 1999, FA Legal developed resources to provide legal referral services and defense to individuals and firms with a single motto— always place litigation prevention first. Our goal is not only to prepare but to provide resources that will actually increase the potential of prevailing in a claim. Does your E&O effectively cover you?
Our members enjoy exclusive benefits that are unparalleled in the industry. These extensive benefits have allowed our members to build a successful business apart from the fear of litigation. FA Legal members then joined together to address these destructive trends with proven tools. We’re pleased to offer this one-of-a-kind assocation and invite you to be among the industry leaders now as FA Risk Management.
