Cyber Liability

Commercial Auto

Commercial auto policies can address liability and physical damage risks when vehicles are owned or used by a business. The vehicle, driver, radius, use, and property transported all matter.

Business Income & Extra Expense

Business income coverage can help replace lost operating income and continuing expenses when a covered property loss interrupts operations. The restoration period and operational dependencies are central to selecting a limit.

Liquor Liability

Businesses in the alcohol trade generally need liquor liability rather than relying on host liquor provisions. Sales, hours, service practices, entertainment, security, and applicable law shape the exposure.

Garage Liability

Garage liability addresses covered liability arising from garage operations and, depending on the form, covered autos. The review should distinguish premises, products, completed work, drivers, dealer plates, and customer interactions.

Dealers Open Lot

Dealers open lot coverage is designed for covered loss or damage to dealership inventory. Peak values, locations, weather, theft controls, transit, valuation, and deductibles should be evaluated carefully.

Garagekeepers

Garagekeepers coverage can address covered damage to customers' autos while they are being serviced, repaired, parked, stored, or test-driven. Legal liability and direct coverage forms respond differently.

Commercial Umbrella & Excess Liability Insurance

Commercial umbrella and excess liability coverage can add a layer of protection above scheduled underlying policies, commonly including general liability, commercial auto liability, and employers liability. It is designed for severe covered claims that exhaust applicable underlying limits. An umbrella is not a replacement for complete primary insurance, and it does not automatically extend over every policy or fill every exclusion.

Surety Bonds

A surety bond is a three-party agreement supporting a principal's obligation to an obligee. Underwriting may evaluate credit, experience, financial strength, and the obligation being guaranteed.

Directors & Officers (D&O) Liability

Directors and officers liability coverage can address specified claims arising from governance and management decisions, subject to the insured-person, organization, claim, wrongful-act, exclusion, retention, limit, and reporting provisions of the policy. Nonprofits should evaluate entity coverage, individual protection, employment-related allegations, fiduciary exposure, prior acts, and defense arrangements.

Employment Practices Liability Insurance (EPLI)

Employment practices liability insurance can address specified claims alleging discrimination, harassment, retaliation, wrongful termination, or other covered employment wrongful acts. Claims-made reporting, defense costs, retentions, wage-and-hour treatment, third-party coverage, volunteers, independent contractors, and the definition of insured persons require careful review.
