What we write:

Why buy coverage?

  • To provide comprehensive protection against employment-related lawsuits and leverage expertise to mitigate risks
  • It’s cost-effective compared to potential settlements, making it an important investment opportunity
  • Lawsuits based on language in employee handbooks and written policies are increasingly common
  • Relying solely on commercial general liability policies may leave gaps in coverage
