Laws & Regulations | Loss Control | Liability Coverages
Essential Coverages for Education & Nonprofits:
Educators Legal Liability also known as school board legal liability insurance, is a hybrid of traditional directors and officers (D&O) and errors and omissions (E&O) coverages. Typical claims covered by educators’ legal liability insurance include wrongful termination, wrongful dismissal, failure to grant tenure, and negligent counseling.
Crisis Event Coverage provides financial assistance and resources to businesses in the aftermath of a critical incident, such as a natural disaster or active shooter event.
Cyber Liability safeguards businesses against financial losses and legal expenses resulting from data breaches, cyberattacks, and other online threats.
Specialized Property Coverage offers tailored insurance solutions to protect valuable assets like athletic equipment, musical instruments, and fine art.
Directors & Officers Liability can protect against actual or alleged wrongful acts by individual insureds and the organization, including error, omission, misleading statements, neglect, or breach of duty by an insured while acting in the scope of their duties.
Sexual Abuse & Molestation insurance helps schools and nonprofits cover financial costs associated with allegations of sexual abuse or molestation against their staff or volunteers, including legal defense, settlements, and victim support services.
Employment Practices Liability protects schools and nonprofits from financial losses arising from legal claims related to employment practices, such as discrimination, wrongful termination, harassment, or retaliation. It can also extend protection to third parties, like students or volunteers, who bring similar claims against the organization.
Student Travel & Accident insurance is generally purchased by K-12 schools and covers students from costs associated with becoming injured at school sponsored events and activities. It can cover medical expenses, accidental death or injury, and repatriation costs in case of emergencies.
