Business Owners Insurance (BOP)
A business owners policy combines business property and business liability insurance into one bundled policy. These policies are customized and usually have packages that add coverages for the most important risks for your specific type of operations.
Your business is as unique as you are, but it definitely needs Liability Insurance. If you own any tangible property that you use in the course of running your company, you also need Property Insurance and/or an Inland Marine policy to cover tools and equipment. In addition to these basic packages, we can help you select from optional coverages like:
- Business Auto Insurance
- A business catastrophe liability/umbrella policy that is designed to protect against large losses. For the typical business, the umbrella policy would provide protection over and above general liability and auto liability policies.
- Employment Practices Liability Insurance (EPLI) that provides protection against claims brought by employees alleging discrimination, wrongful termination or harassment, including sexual harassment.
- Other specialized liability insurance policies or endorsements that are designed to meet specific needs of particular businesses. They may include:
- Errors and Omissions Insurance (E&O)
- Professional Liability Insurance
- Directors and Officers Liability Insurance (D&O)
General Liability Insurance
Companies of all sizes have a certain amount of risk. Our agents will help you identify the areas of concern with your business and address them with the coverage that makes the most sense for you.
Business Auto Insurance
Your business owns cars and trucks. Or maybe you own a business and use your personal auto in the course of your normal business operations. If you use your car, truck, or van for anything other than a commute to and from work, you need either a business use endorsement on your personal auto policy or a business auto insurance policy. We offer coverage for anything from a single vehicle to a whole fleet of trucks…or busses.
Whether you have one vehicle or a whole fleet, we can help you implement custom coverage that will protect your business and personal assets from the additional exposure that commercial vehicles bring with them.
Trucking companies require special handling. We are well-versed in writing trucking risks with DOT and MC designations, state and federal filings required, as well as dry cargo and refr coverage.
Commercial Property Insurance
Commercial property insurance goes hand-in-hand with liability insurance. The property insurance protects your tangible property, i.e.: buildings & contents from losses due to fire, theft, weather, and many other perils. We make sure you have adequate limits to rebuild your building from the ground up with like kind and quality of construction. We then add full replacement cost coverage on your contents so you can get your company back up and running as quickly as possible.
Commercial Umbrella Insurance
A business catastrophe liability or umbrella policy is designed to protect against large losses. For the typical business, the umbrella policy would provide protection over and above general liability and auto liability policies. You must have a general liability and/or commercial auto liability policy in place in order to write an umbrella policy.
It is important to note that personal umbrella policies only cover personal losses. Commercial umbrella policies cover only business losses and never the twain shall cross.
