Massachusetts was home to 615,775 small businesses in recent years that employed 1,404,234 individuals. And because of its location in the Greater Boston area, Weymouth, MA provides a safe haven for such entrepreneurial success. From IT consultants to marketing firms, small businesses thrive in this city of 55,419. But there are numerous risks that these companies face — which is where our Independent Insurance Agents can help.
Our local agents aren't tied down to one carrier and are able to compare a number of quotes with a multitude of carriers. With this many options, you're sure to find a Weymouth commercial insurance policy that meets all of your needs — as well as your budget. Let an agent assist in protecting what you've worked so hard to get off the ground. Even the smallest of risks can present a financially devastating situation. General liability coverage is the most basic form of protection that a small business can possess. Whether a customer slips and falls or a product causes an injury, these foundational coverages will safeguard your Weymouth small business.
- General Liability: According to a recent Travelers Business Risk Summary, 60% of small-business owners ranked medical cost inflation as their highest concern and more than 30% said they felt the least prepared to handle this concern. This umbrella-like coverage is mostly used for personal injuries that occur on your physical property but can extend to employees that accidentally cause an accident.
- Product Liability: A national study found that 71% of product liability awards and 53% of medical malpractice awards amounted to $1 million or more in payouts. If your small business sells, manufactures or distributes a product, this coverage is for you. The costs associated with a lawsuit can be hefty, but with product liability insurance you can stay focused on your bottom line.
- Professional Liability: Also known as errors & omissions insurance, this coverage is for lawyers, architects, and consultants who regularly dish out advice. If a negligence claim lands on your desk, this coverage helps cover legal costs. Talk to an agent about the details to see how professional liability coverage applies to your Weymouth small business.
