Business Insurance
All businesses, from the small independent contractors and home-based business to large corporations and offices, need to
make sure their liabilities and assets are properly insured. Many of the coverages are the same or similar to those found in a homeowner
or auto insurance policy. Every business, however, is unique. There are a multitude of coverages available, for everything from employee
dishonesty to professional liability to equipment breakdown coverage or workers compensation. Most claims arising from a "business pursuit" are specifically
excluded from a homeowners or personal auto policy. The following are some common situations many people think they have coverage for,
but find out differently after a claim:
Stay at home mother who watches children in her home during the day for a profit
College student who delivers newspapers or pizza's at night using his or her personal automobile
Real estate agent who drives clients around in her personal automobile while showing properties
Accountant who has a home office where clients meet him for appointments
If you are unsure of what does or does not constitute a "business pursuit", are thinking of starting your own business, or would just like
