We’ll work with you to determine the best protection strategies and deliver you the most cost-effective policies.
Property Insurance
Fire, water damage, and storms can not only destroy your offices and their contents, they can cause major setbacks in time and money and could, in the long run, cost you your business. We provide a suite of products to limit your business exposures. Talk to us about policies that protect your buildings and facilities as well as about policies that cover business interruption, products and completed operations. We can also help you structure non-traditional insurance programs.
Liability Insurance
No matter the size or type of your business Liability insurance is crucial to safeguarding your interests. In today’s marketplace of increased insurance costs and less coverage, let Paston find you the most cost-effective liability options that will deliver you the most protection from business errors and omissions that can put you out of business.
Umbrella/Excess Liability Insurance
Lawsuits may be a common occurrence these days, and your liability claims may be in excess of your coverage. Umbrella coverage gives you added peace of mind while providing additional liability coverage at higher limits. Paston can steer you past the expensive policies to find you the best coverage without a large additional cost. In the long run, the extra protection you purchase benefits you directly as you consider your possible expenses you may incur without it. Excess liability insurance issues can be complex – let Paston’s highly experienced associates deal with the details so you can relax and rest assured.
Commercial Auto Insurance
Your commercial vehicles need the same kind of protection as your personal vehicles. Your specific commercial auto policy, however, has some differences. Without the proper coverage, even one breakdown or driver error could bring your enterprise to a halt. Paston agents can explain all the differences and options, and will tailor your business vehicle coverage according to your auto use (how many vehicles, who are driving them, and whether or not employees use their own vehicles for your business.) Paston’s expertise for the commercial auto programs allows you to benefit from our focus on these unique requirements and classifications. Whether you have a fleet of sales vehicles or one dedicated auto, Paston can provide the coverage that’s right for you.
Workers Compensation
Accidents happen, and you have a legal need for employee coverage even if you consider your workplace safe. Paston can find you the best solutions for covering worker injury payments, lost time, rehabilitation services and death benefits for surviving spouses and dependents. Our agents are up-to-date on the latest state and local jurisdiction laws and make sure you have the right policies for the right times. Benefit from our extensive relationships with leading insurance carrier specialists to customize coverage that provides medical and indemnity payments to your employees.
Statutory Disability
Five states (California, Hawaii, New Jersey, New York, Rhode Island) and Puerto Rico currently require businesses to carry long-term disability insurance for their employees. Details differ by state, and Paston can determine your unique need and type of statutory disability coverage.
