Cyber Liability & Insurance Coverage in 2026: What Lawyers Must Know Now

Cyber incidents are no longer rare events — they are a routine operational risk for all organizations and professional practices, including law firms. At the same time, cyber insurance policies are tightening, exclusions are expanding, and coverage disputes are becoming more and more common.

Clients increasingly expect their lawyers to help them interpret coverage, respond calmly during incidents, and reduce future exposure — even when cyber risk is not the lawyer’s primary practice area.

Join this session to acquire practical legal tools to support your clients before, during, and after cyber events.

Strengthen your role as a trusted advisor and:

• Decode common cyber insurance terms and exclusions and explain — in plain language — whether coverage is likely to apply.
• Conduct a rapid, structured cyber risk assessment suitable for small businesses, healthcare practices, and professional-services firms.
• Support clients during cyber emergencies, including ransomware, data theft, business interruption, and social-engineering fraud.
• Communicate effectively with insurers, forensic vendors, and breach-response teams to reduce confusion and delays.
• Integrate cyber-risk protections into engagement letters and service contracts, reducing exposure for both clients and your firm.
