How a strategic, comprehensive approach to managing risk in your business, professional practice or nonprofit organization can benefit YOU.

Workers’ Compensation

 
 

Here’s some big news: Many business owners pay more for Workers’ Compensation insurance than they legally should. Here’s some BIGGER news: They don’t have to.

Employers appreciate that the Duncan staff is composed of Certified WorkComp Advisors or Certified WorkComp Specialists that know the Workers’ Compensation system inside and out. CWCAs and CWCSs know that each part of the process (audit, experience modification factors, back-to-work programs, employee classification, claims handling and more) can be riddled with potential errors, causing employers to be frustrated and overcharged. With over 800 different employee classifications, it’s not surprising that errors can sometimes slip through. We’re your safety net to make sure that doesn’t happen. Let us review your Workers’ Compensation and safety program to see if we can help you reduce your costs, have an error-free program, and get your employees safely back on the job.

Business Auto

 

If your business utilizes any sort of vehicle for any reason, our business auto coverage can help keep you safe in the event of vehicular failure. We insure vehicles which are owned, leased, hired, or borrowed by several kinds of businesses. The best part is that we mold your auto coverage to meet your business’s distinct needs. The goal is to provide you with the perfect plan now and for later.

Even if your business does not own any vehicles, you still have risks facing your business of employees operating their own vehicles in the course of working for you.

Property & Equipment / Inland Marine

 
 

Property insurance covers the risk of property loss in several commercial situations. That includes buildings, equipment, furniture, fixtures, inventories, business records, supplies, and other items.

Property insurance may cover two types of losses:

  • Direct losses may be covered when property is lost, stolen, damaged, or destroyed
  • Indirect losses related to direct losses may also be covered

Equipment/Inland Marine basically provides property coverages to things you own that may leave your operating location such as forklifts, excavators, tools, air compressors, and other mobile equipment and tools.

General Liability

 

General Liability Insurance protects a business against bodily injury or property damage claims made by other parties. General Liability Policies provide coverage for liability arising out of:

  • Premises & Operation
  • Fire Damage Liability
  • Personal & Advertising Injury
  • Medical Payments
  • Products & Completed Operations
 

Umbrella/Excess Liability

 
 

We live in an age of multi-million-dollar lawsuits. That’s why you may also want to add extra liability protection in the form of a Commercial Umbrella Policy. We can tell you more about these plans and whether they make sense for you.

Surety & Bonds

 

Contractors turn to Duncan to assist them in designing and building risk management and insurance programs for many of their construction specialties. Contractors rely on the Duncan Construction Division’s highly trained surety underwriters, account managers, risk managers, ISNet/PICS system managers, safety professionals and claims specialists to meet their unique needs. And in doing so, we help General Contractors, Artisan or Trade Contractors, Residential Home Builders, Paper General Contractors, Construction Managers, Environmental Contractors and Architects & Engineers remain competitive.

Knowing that a strong surety line is the lifeblood of a contractor’s ability to obtain jobs, many contractors work with Duncan to create and maintain a relationship with a surety company.

Others have established a Backup Bonding Program® with Duncan in order to be ready at a moment’s notice should their current surety provider not be able to perform.

Whether they have a specific larger job their surety provider won’t extend for, or the total volume of work that they have available to them is beyond what they have in a surety line, or their surety is not able to perform in general, they know having a strong surety program and backup program is critical.

 

Captives & Alternative Financing

 
 

Why continue to pay premiums to insurance companies that are far and above what they pay out on your behalf?

Business owners that manage their employees’ risks and claims rely on Duncan’s expertise in establishing insurance programs that enable them to take full control of their insurance dollars. They have taken advantage of these alternative programs in the form of captives, self-insurance, high deductibles or other insurance programs that have not only reduced their insurance costs but also enabled them to have a say in how their money is spent and, in some cases, custom design their own risk protection. With all of the alternative options out there, companies spending as little as $100,000 in insurance premiums can still take advantage of attractive alternative programs.

Cyber Liability

 

Cyber attacks are becoming one of the most aggressive and costliest threats in the world. Protect your business with our exclusive Cyber Risk insurance program. Not all programs are created equal! We cover both paper and electronic data breaches AND other risks of doing business online.

Executive Risk Coverages

  • Directors’ and Officers’ Liability Insurance
