How Much Product Liability Insurance Should I Purchase?
Every business is different, and your business should use as much information as possible when determining which product liability insurance coverage package to use. All businesses are unique, and that is one key fact to consider. I wouldn't imagine that Federal Express falls under the same blanket of protection that John Doe's Dry Cleaners does. Your company should choose the insurance coverage plan that is best suited. Generally, experts advise that business to whom liability insurance applies should purchase as much protection as they can afford.Some factors to consider when choosing which insurance coverage plan to purchase are insurance company reputation, specific policies, timeliness of services provided (by said insurance company), add-on policies, experienced legal counseling, and of course, lower payments with better results.How an insurance company's reputation is presented definitely serves as a valid indicator as to how high or low the quality of their servic es will be. Let's say that John C. Smith's Flower Shop filed a claim with Jane Doe Insurance Adjustors, Inc. in April 2004. After 12 months of "pending" status, continual confusion, lack of legal expertise, and unwillingness to cooperate with John C. Smith's Flower Shop, Jane Doe finally made their payments after one year. That would clearly serve as a black mark against the company's reputation, and your company should probably not consider Jane Doe for insurance.Timeliness of services provided is also an important factor to consider for your business when deciding which product liability insurance company to choose. Let's look back at the previous example. Even if Jane Doe insurance Adjustors, Inc did everything right, would you really want to be covered by a company that took a whole twelve months to complete a judgment?Some various add-on policies are usually available from most insurance companies, and should be thoroughly reviewed when making a decision to purchase. Le gal contents, computer equipment, and Public Liability Insurance are three examples of appropriate add-ons for product liability insurance plans.Experienced legal counseling is a quite crucial element of any insurance you get, but especially product liability insurance. Do you want to go with Gomer and Goober Pyle Insurance Company, which boasts a legal team with a combined 5 years of experience with degrees from Montana Valley Tech or would your company feel more comfortable obtaining coverage from Matlock Insurance Company, with a legal team that has been involved in the business for a combined 3 decades? Your company is too important to you to ignore these truths of liability insurance.
