Family Law

Guardianship

Criminal Law

DUI/DWI
Sometimes called an "extra-risk" policy, an insurance policy issued at a higher-than-standard premium rate to cover the extra risk where, for example, an insured has had a DUI or other traffic violations.
Traffic Violations
Fraud
Burglary
No one plans to lose their valuables and other belongings in a burglary, a fire or a natural disaster. If one of these unfortunate events destroyed your home, would you be able to report exactly what you lost to the police, to the Internal Revenue Service or to your independent insurance agent?
Theft
Kidnapping
You're cruising the streets of Mexico City in the company car, feeling good about your trip across the border: A week to explore exotic night spots, soak up some sun, and do a little work. You pull up to a red light, idling for a minute. Startled by a knock on the window, you turn to find two men, two guns, and two options: let them in, or... let them in. If you're lucky, the next step is waking up in a cold sweat. If you're not, then you, your ATM card, and your wallet just succumbed to an "express." That's "express kidnapping" â€” the latest trend among Mexican criminals, and one of many reasons to look at kidnap and ransom insurance if your company sends employees abroad.
Extortion
As more U.S. companies conduct global business, entering countries that can be politically and economically unstable, their employees face greater risk of abduction and extortion, among other hazards. Kidnap and ransom policies ("K&R") provide coverage in the event of a kidnapping. The policies cover not only executives and employees, at home and overseas, but also, in many cases, employees' families and guests staying in their house or traveling with them are covered as well. Some policies even cover consultants who are abducted or held for ransom while on a job site for the company. A typical K&R policy covers all kidnap-related costs, from ransom to travel expenses. Ransom money is also insured during transit, until it's delivered. Other potential covered costs include legal liability, fees for a professional negotiator, personal accident insurance, and travel expenses. Some policies will cover the expenses for a security consultant called in to investigate a threat, even if no ransom payment is necessary or no one is kidnapped. "When you have a disaster such as a kidnapping or extortion, what you really need is instant help," says John Coonan, vice president and deputy of US operations at Chubb Executive Risk. K&R policies partner the insurer with a security company specializing in international terrorism, which can finesse the delicate task of negotiating with kidnappers. Chubb is aligned with Ackerman Group of Miami, Fla., which is on-call 24 hours via a hotline that Chubb customers can call to report a kidnapping. Within a day, representatives of the firm will be on-site, working closely with the client to ensure that all aspects of a kidnapping have been attended to. "The biggest selling point of the coverage is that a specialist is available to the insured," says Will Demers, manager of commercial risk at Travelers Property Casualty, which partners with the security firm Control Risks Group of McLean, Va. Hearing that a colleague or family member has been kidnapped spurs panic in most people; the security firm acts as a neutral advisor who can not only guide ransom negotiations, but also ensure that often-overlooked details, such as informing the press, are taken care of. Some security specialists take over the negotiation; others prefer to devise strategies but have them carried out by a family member or company representative, fearing that the presence of a professional negotiator might anger the kidnappers.

Employment Law

Workers Compensation
Whether you employ only one part-time worker or thousands of employees in multiple locations, worker's compensation insurance can be a significant cost of doing business. Careful evaluation and planning of your company's worker safety programs can tremendously reduce injuries and accidents in the workplace. Comprehensive education and ongoing training in the workplace will help you reduce worker's compensation costs.
Wrongful Termination
Sexual Harassment

Property Law

Real Estate Transactions
Property Damage
Provides liability coverage that protects the insured from lawsuits arising from either the negligent operation or ownership of a covered automobile. There are two coverages provided in Part A - bodily injury liability (BIL) and property damage liability (PDL).

Health Law

Personal Injury
First-party no-fault coverage in which an insurer pays, within the specified limits, the wage loss, medical, hospital and funeral expenses of the insured.
