Our Coverage

Insurance built for New York businesses

From a one-person contractor to a growing company with dozens of employees, we help you stay protected and compliant with New York State requirements.

Workers' Compensation

Required by New York law for nearly every employer. Covers medical bills and lost wages when an employee is hurt on the job — and protects you from costly lawsuits and state penalties.

  • Meets NY Workers' Compensation Board requirements
  • Certificates for contractors & GCs
  • Help with audits and classifications
Quote Workers' Comp

General Liability

Protects your business if a customer, vendor or passerby claims bodily injury or property damage caused by your work, products or premises — including legal defense costs.

  • Bodily injury & property damage
  • Additional insured endorsements
  • Same-day certificates for jobs & leases
Quote General Liability

Business Owner's Policy (BOP)

A smart, cost-effective bundle for small and mid-size businesses. Combines general liability, commercial property and business income protection in one policy.

  • Liability + property in one package
  • Business interruption coverage
  • Usually less than buying separately

Disability & Paid Family Leave (DBL/PFL)

New York requires most employers to carry statutory Disability Benefits (DBL) and Paid Family Leave. We set it up correctly so your employees are covered and you stay compliant.

  • NY statutory DBL coverage
  • Paid Family Leave included
  • Easy setup for new employers
Quote DBL/PFL

Umbrella Insurance

Extra liability protection that kicks in when a large claim exceeds the limits of your general liability, auto or employer's liability policies. Often required for bigger contracts.

  • Higher limits for major claims
  • Meets contract requirements
  • Affordable peace of mind

FAQ

Common questions

Do I need Workers' Compensation in New York?

Almost every New York employer with one or more employees — full-time, part-time or family members in many cases — must carry Workers' Compensation. Not having it can lead to significant penalties and stop-work orders. Call us and we'll confirm what applies to your business.

What is NY Disability (DBL) and Paid Family Leave?

DBL provides partial wage replacement to employees who are disabled off the job. Paid Family Leave gives employees paid time off to bond with a new child, care for a sick family member and more. Most New York employers are required to provide both.

How fast can I get a certificate of insurance (COI)?

Once your policy is in force, we can usually issue certificates very quickly — often the same day — including additional insured wording your general contractor or landlord requires.

What's the difference between General Liability and a BOP?

General Liability covers third-party injuries and property damage. A Business Owner's Policy bundles General Liability with commercial property and business income coverage, which is often a better value for businesses with a location, equipment or inventory.

Do I really need an Umbrella policy?

If a serious claim exceeds your policy limits, you could pay the difference out of pocket. Umbrella insurance adds an extra layer of liability protection and is frequently required for larger contracts and commercial leases.
