What are the most common policies for Michigan lawyers?
The most common policies for lawyers in Michigan vary depending on revenue, client contracts, partnerships, and other factors.
General liability insurance
General liability insurance is the foundation of a lawyer’s business protection, with coverage that extends to client injuries, client property damage, and advertising injuries. Most commercial leases require you to have this coverage.
Business owner's policy (BOP)
Lawyers often qualify for a business owner’s policy. This package helps your business save money by bundling commercial property insurance with general liability at an affordable rate.
Michigan workers' compensation
If you own a law firm in Michigan that has employees, you are required to carry workers’ compensation coverage if you employ more than three employees at one time, or if you employ one employee for more than 35 hours per week for 13 weeks out of the year. If you are a sole proprietor, the coverage is optional. This policy covers medical expenses and partial lost wages following a work injury.
Cyber liability insurance
Cyber liability insurance can help lawyers survive data breaches and cyberattacks. This policy can help pay for client notification costs, credit monitoring services, and other related expenses.
