Liability Insurance?

[Restomage]

Professionals - How much are you paying for your liability insurance and what does it cover? I'm looking for a new general liability insurance policy (I think the basic ones cover up to around $1,000,000) and would like to bundle it with insurance on my equipment. Any suggestions on companies? Thanks.

I had a recent quote (Canada) for $2000,000 liability/specified perils, and (IIRC) 100% coverage on up to $50,000 in equipment damage/loss (any circumstance/location) for ~$1000/year. From what I understand it can be considerably cheaper if purchased through the PPA.

PPA, WPPI, NAPP, ASMP, and other organizations command group rates from insurance writers.

Included with PPA membership is Indemnity insurance, and access to PPA lawyers.

Check out Hill and Usher. They offer a very small discount to PPA members based on the quotes I got before and after joining PPA. Before I joined they quoted me about $575 for $2,000,000 liability and $15,000 for equipment.

That's not too bad. One of my other photo friends is paying 70 a month through Calumet.

Hmm, I think I'm getting screwed... I just got my policy through State Farm (my home and car insurance provider) with $1mil liability and $10k equipment (no deductable) for $93/month. That's with their discount for my already being a customer and being with them for 4 years.

If you are in Canda check out the PPOC, the coverage you can get through them is great.
