Insurance
Placing insurance: shopping a risk to carriers and putting the cover in force.
What it takes
- Property and liability cover for land, buildings, ranches and businesses
- Livestock and equine mortality cover
- Cargo and transit cover for a haul
- Auto, boat and equipment cover
What it leaves
- Claims adjusting. The carrier handles a claim; we help you file it.
- Life and health cover, until the license for it is in place.
