Common Types of Commercial Insurance in Union Beach, New Jersey

Business Property Insurance

Business Property Insurance protects your company property from the financial consequences of external threats, such as fire, hurricanes, theft, and vandalism. You should be aware that Flood and Earthquake Insurance require riders.

Business Property Insurance covers outdoor structures on the property (e.g. fences) as well as:

  • Tools and equipment 
  • Office furnishings
  • Stored inventory on business property
  • Computers, printers, and fax machines used on the property
  • Essential documents for running your business
  • Personal property on the premises 

General Liability Insurance

General Liability Insurance protects your business from another set of risks, i.e. lawsuits claiming that your business or employees:

  • Caused someone bodily harm
  • Damaged the property you rent
  • Damaged someone else’s property
  • Infringed a competitor’s copyright, ran misleading ads, or committed libel or slander
  • Damaged the reputation of a customer/client/competitor

General Liability Insurance can provide you with the necessary funds to pay medical costs, property damage, reputational repair costs, and legal expenses if a verdict goes against you.

Employment Practices Liability Insurance (EPLI)

Over the years, the civil rights of employees have increased. Now that federal and state laws protect employees from numerous types of discrimination, every responsible employer must have EPLI Insurance. Employment Practices Liability Insurance will protect you in case an employee sues you for discriminatory treatment based on:

  • Age (over 40)
  • Disability
  • Race
  • Sex, sexual orientation, gender identity
  • Ethnicity, color, country of origin
  • Religion or belief system
  • Marital status
  • Military status
  • Pregnancy

No employer, no matter how inclusive and even-handed, is free of potential lawsuits of this nature. In addition to accusations of discrimination, EPLI will protect you from employee claims of invasion of privacy, false imprisonment, wage and hour violations, and breach of contract. A single verdict against your company can result not only in financial and reputational harm, so investing in EPLI is critical.

Professional Liability Insurance

Professional Liability Insurance is necessary for all professional practices since everyone, including professionals, can make costly mistakes. Below is a list of some of the professionals who require Professional Liability Insurance:

  • Doctors and lawyers
  • Psychologists and other mental health counselors
  • Accountants, financial analysts, and advisors
  • Architects and engineers
  • Marketing consultants
  • Real estate brokers
  • Scientists
  • Educators
  • Healthcare workers and beauticians
  • Contractors and commercial builders

Professional Liability Insurance protects our clients against accusations of negligence, malpractice, dispensing erroneous information, or misrepresenting their skills or credentials.

Franchisor and Franchisee Liability Insurance

Working from a successful model does not protect franchise operations from civil lawsuits; however, Franchise Liability Insurance does. Such a policy shelters franchises from lawsuits accusing them of:

  • Slandering clients, customers, or competitors
  • Selling merchandise that is defective, damaged, or harmful
  • Injuring a customer on company premises

Our insurance advisors have the experience and skill to guide you to the right franchise policies.

Cyber Security Liability Insurance

Because so much business takes place online and records of business transactions are stored electronically, Cyber Security Liability Insurance has become indispensable for most companies. Such a policy can help your business financially recover from data breaches, viruses, and other common cyber attacks. Cyber Security Liability Insurance can also cover you for associated reparative costs and legal expenses associated with data breaches and shield you if one of your employees causes online damage.
