Are You Asking the Right Questions?
In today’s litigious world, making sure you have the right liability program in place to protect you against claims from others is essential. Protecting you doesn’t stop with the placement of a policy.
While most companies are confident their property insurance covers the building and contents in the event of a fire, we feel it’s critical to dig deeper.
- What happens in the event of a supply chain disruption?
- How is the equipment being valued?
- How do I ensure the preparation assistance or forensic accountant will represent my interests?
These questions, along with many others, help ensure that policies are written to best fit your operations
