BUSINESS INSURANCE

Workers Compensation
Your employees are one of your most valuable assets. Protecting them from workplace injuries is of utmost importance. First West provides loss control and safety training to you and your employees to keep them working safely. If they do become ill or injured you want a quality carrier taking care of them. We represent strong workers compensation insurers and we monitor your claims with them to ensure they are being handled properly and in a timely fashion.

Surety Bonds
Contractors, developers, cleaning services, firms with retirement plans, mortgage brokers, motor vehicle dealers and process servers are just a few of the businesses who need surety bonds. If you are in need of a bond to provide a financial guarantee for a contract or to comply with a legal requirement First West has the markets and expertise to provide it. We have a knowledgeable surety staff that can guide you through the process.

Directors and Officers Liability
Does your firm have a board of directors? Do you individually serve on the board of a nonprofit entity? If so, you have need for directors and officers liability coverage. This coverage protects both the entity and the individual directors from claims arising from such allegations as: breaches of duty, failure to exercise due care, failure to ensure compliance with state and federal laws, disclosing trade secrets to outsiders and failure to enforce company policies just to name a few.

Employment Practices Liability Insurance can be added to Directors and Officers policies to provide protection for claims arising from wrongful determination, discrimination and sexual harassment.

These coverages can be surprisingly reasonable to purchase and provide the protection and security that quality individuals who serve on boards desire.
