As families across our communities gear up for a new school year, keeping students safe on their way to and from school is essential. At The Brooks Stafford Company, we care about helping you protect what matters most, and that includes your child’s safety every day. Here are a few reminders to share with your students:

• Walking to school: Encourage kids to stay on sidewalks, use crosswalks, make eye contact with drivers, and walk with a group when possible.

• Riding a bike: A properly fitted helmet is a must. Remind them to ride with traffic, stop fully at crossings, and choose quieter routes.

• Taking the bus: Students should stay several feet back from the curb, wait for the bus to stop completely, and always make eye contact with the driver before crossing.

• Getting dropped off: Follow school zone speed limits and drop-off procedures, and never pass a bus that is loading or unloading.

• Teen drivers: Review safe driving basics like wearing seatbelts, avoiding devices, and staying within the speed limit.

We’re here to support families with guidance, protection, and peace of mind. If you have questions about coverage or need help reviewing your insurance, our team is always here to help.

Employment Practices Liability Insurance (EPLI) is one of the most important ways to protect your business from the unexpected. At The Brooks Stafford Company, we help businesses stay prepared for risks tied to hiring, managing, and supporting employees.

EPLI helps safeguard your organization against claims such as wrongful termination, discrimination, harassment, retaliation, and issues related to hiring or promotions. These situations can be costly, time-consuming, and disruptive for any business.

A few things every business should keep in mind:
• Even a single claim can generate significant legal expenses, regardless of the outcome.
• Leadership may have to divert valuable time away from daily operations to manage legal matters.
• Claims may involve employees, customers, vendors, or other third parties.
• Issues can escalate quickly if documentation is limited or if perspectives differ.

Having EPLI in place provides a layer of protection so one claim does not derail your long-term plans or daily operations.

If you want to review your current policy or explore adding EPLI to your insurance strategy, our team is here to help. Reach out anytime to start the conversation.

Ever shared your car with a friend or borrowed someone else’s for the day? It’s common to wonder whose insurance steps in if an accident happens.

In most cases, auto insurance follows the vehicle. That means the owner’s policy is typically the first line of protection — but there are exceptions depending on the circumstances and coverages in place.

At The Brooks Stafford Company, we want you to feel confident about how your policy applies before you hand over the keys. Our team is always here to walk through your coverage, answer questions, or help you add extra protection when it makes sense.

Not sure which policy would respond in your situation? Reach out anytime. We’re here to help you navigate your options with clarity and peace of mind.
