Did you know that Teaching without liability Insurance doesn't have to be!
Most Homeowners and renters policies do not cover liability or property damage due to business activities. We offer insurance to protect you against lawsuits at home or away arising out of your home based tutoring business.
We also Offer Event Liability Insurance
Your own Event Liability Policy can provide protection by assuming the risk of legal claims brought by an injured Person. We cover many types of events, such as, Concerts, Recitals and much more.
Please contact Stephanie Molinary at extension 111 for both liability programs.
