Question 1

Is workers' comp required in Utah?

Accepted Answer

Yes — generally any business with one or more employees needs workers' compensation insurance in Utah. There are limited exceptions for sole proprietors and certain agricultural work, but the default is yes.

Question 2

What does a BOP actually cover?

Accepted Answer

A Business Owners Policy bundles general liability, business property, and business interruption. It's the foundation for most small businesses we write — typically the most cost-effective way to get core coverage.

Question 3

Do you write professional liability / E&O?

Accepted Answer

Yes — for consultants, real estate agents, medical professionals, tech firms, accountants, design professionals, and more. Each has its own carrier specialists.

Question 4

How much does cyber liability cost?

Accepted Answer

For most small Southern Utah businesses, standalone cyber coverage runs $500–$2,500/year depending on revenue, data sensitivity, and existing security controls. It's one of the highest-ROI policies we sell.

Question 5

Can you handle COIs and additional insureds quickly?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Same day in most cases. We know contracts and leases require COIs fast, and we've built our process around it.

Question 6

What's the difference between general liability and professional liability?

Accepted Answer

General liability covers physical injuries and property damage (a customer slips in your shop). Professional liability covers financial harm from your advice or service (a client claims your work cost them money). Many businesses need both.

Question 7

Do I need a liquor liability policy for my St. George restaurant or event venue?

Accepted Answer

If you sell or serve alcohol in Utah, yes — and your general liability policy almost certainly excludes alcohol-related claims by default. Liquor liability is a separate coverage that handles claims from over-service incidents, which can run into six figures fast. Required by most landlords and lenders for venues that pour.

Question 8

How is workers' comp priced in Utah and can I lower mine?

Accepted Answer

Workers' comp is priced on payroll multiplied by a class code rate, modified by your experience mod (e-mod). The two biggest levers are getting your class codes right (incorrectly broad codes mean overpaying) and managing claims to keep your e-mod low. We audit class codes at every renewal and have moved clients off rates 15–40% lower than what they were paying.

Question 9

What insurance do I need to sublease space or run an Airbnb / short-term rental in Washington County?

Accepted Answer

Short-term rentals are commercial use and excluded from most homeowners policies. You need a commercial short-term-rental policy or a DP-3 with hospitality endorsement, plus general liability appropriate to your guest volume. We write STR coverage across St. George, Hurricane, Kanab, and the rest of the region.

Question 10

Do you write coverage for medical practices, dentists, and chiropractors in St. George?

Accepted Answer

Yes — including professional liability (malpractice), general liability, business property, cyber, and workers' comp. Medical professional liability is its own market with specific carriers, and we know which ones write favorably for Southern Utah practices.
