General FAQs

Why choose AIM over a commercial insurance company?

Large carriers operate nationally. AIM is a bar-related insurance company operating inside the Southeast legal community. AIM is a lawyer-owned, regional insurer focused on serving Alabama, Georgia, and Tennessee solo practitioners and small to mid-sized law firms.

Commercial carriers cannot replicate our regional immersion. We know local courts and defense counsel. We recognize and underwrite for regional claim patterns.

What states does AIM serve?

We provide malpractice and cybersecurity insurance for law firms in:​

  • Alabama

  • Georgia

  • Tennessee

Our focus allows us to deeply understand the legal landscape in each state.

What makes AIM different from other malpractice carriers?

We are owned and managed by local attorneys. We have strong relationships with the Alabama State Bar, the Chattanooga Bar, the Knoxville Bar, the Nashville Bar, the Memphis Bar, the State Bar of Georgia and many of their sections and local county bar associations.

We are the Southeast’s lawyer-owned risk partner for LPL and cyber coverage.

  • Lawyer-owned governance

  • Regional specialization

  • Integrated lawyers professional liability and cybersecurity protection

  • Coordinated claims handling

  • Commitment to long-term market stability

Why is integrated malpractice and cyber coverage important?

Cyber incidents frequently trigger malpractice exposure. When both policies are placed with AIM:

  • Claims are coordinated

  • Coverage disputes are minimized

  • Response time is faster

  • Firms avoid inter-carrier friction

AIMS offers cyber liability coverage as part of your standard malpractice insurance policy. We provide up to a $100,000 cyber liability limit with no deductible. But is that enough? Depending on the type of law you practice, you may need higher limits. We can talk with you about your exposure to help you decide if higher limits make sense.

Is AIM financially stable?

Yes. For more than 35 years, AIM has been conservatively managed with a long-term commitment to serving solo to small firm practitioners in Alabama, Georgia and Tennessee.

Our premium rates are also stable and calculated to maintain a financially healthy company for the benefit of our policyholders.

In 2010, AIM took advantage of the Federal Risk Retention Act of 1986 to become a District of Columbia mutual risk retention group, allowing our member-owners enhanced stability while still operating out of our home office. 

What size firms does AIM insure?

We focus primarily on:

  • Solo practitioners

  • Lawyers in small firms

  • Lawyers in mid-sized firms up to approximately 50 attorneys

How quickly can I receive a quote?

Our underwriting team typically responds to your inquiry within 24 hours. No third-party administrators, brokers or agents are used. You can talk directly to your underwriter. Quotes are provided within 15 days.

What cybersecurity risks do you cover?

Coverage may include:

  • Ransomware

  • Business email compromise

  • Wire fraud

  • Data breach response

  • Regulatory response costs
