New car? Don’t forget Gap Insurance!

What is Gap Insurance? G- Guaranteed A-Asset P- Protection Guaranteed Asset Protection (GAP) Insurance is an optional, add-on car insurance coverage that can help certain drivers cover the “gap” between the amount they owe on their car and the car's actual cash value in the event of an accident. Why is this an important coverage? Here's an example: Your client Jim has just purchased or leased a new vehicle and has contacted you to make sure he has the insurance coverage he needs in case of an accident. You help the insured add the new car to his current auto insurance policy. Will that policy provide him  with enough coverage in the event of a total loss? Unfortunately, Jim totals his brand new car after a few months of owning it.  He needs to find a replacement.  Will the auto insurance payment from his carrier cover the cost of the outstanding loan? Well, if he has a standard policy, he likely will not be covered for the difference in the value of the vehicle and the outstanding loan. According to Edmunds.com, during the first nine months of 2016, 32 percent of all cars traded [...]

General Liability vs. Professional Liability

General Liability Insurance and Professional Liability Insurance are both important components of Small Business Insurance. But which policy addresses the risks your clients face? Here's how you can tell the difference. General Liability covers a Physical Incident It protects your client's business against a few general lawsuits that any business could face. Essentially, it kicks in when a third party (anyone who doesn't work for the business) sues for: Bodily or personal injury on company property Damage your client's company caused to their property Advertising injuries Slander and Libel- spoken or written defamatory statements Misappropriation- unauthorized use of information Copyright infringement Examples: Third Party Bodily Injury If a person is injured on business property, they may make a bodily injury claim against the business. For example, a package delivery man trips on loose carpeting in your client's accounting office, falls and breaks his wrist. General Liability Insurance can help cover the costs of the bodily injury claim he makes against your client's business for this accident. Third Party Property Damage If your client or someone on their payroll damages a third party’s property, they may face a property [...]
