If you’ve ever loaned your car to a friend or borrowed someone else’s vehicle, you may have wondered what happens if an accident occurs. Would the vehicle owner’s insurance apply — or would the driver’s policy take over?

In most situations, auto insurance follows the vehicle first, not the driver. That means the car's policy is usually the primary source of coverage in the event of an accident. However, that’s not always the case. Swipe for some key details about when the vehicle owner’s policy kicks in and when the driver’s policy is used.

If you’re ever unsure how your coverage applies, want to double-check your policy, or layer on additional auto coverages, we’re always happy to take a look with you. Feel free to give our team a call. We are here to be a resource for you.

Today, we’re posting about nonsense … of the password variety, that is.

We’re often asked what the best kinds of passwords to use are. The answer? Avoid choosing a so-called “nonsense” password and opt for a passphrase.

This might look like changing your password from a series of letters, symbols, and numbers to something like “Bluecatsmeowloudly!” Passphrases are easier to remember and keep hackers frustrated, which is what you want.

Most businesses make crucial employment-related decisions on a regular basis, and for the most part, these decisions go smoothly. But what happens when something goes wrong in the process?

That’s where employment practices liability insurance (EPLI) comes in. This key coverage can act as a safety net if a business is involved in an employment-related legal conflict. It can help with:

🔵 Defense costs - Many EPLI policies help cover legal defense expenses associated with covered claims, and in some cases, these costs may be covered regardless of the case outcome.
🔵 Settlements or judgments - Policies may help pay covered settlements or court-awarded damages, though this is subject to policy limits, exclusions, and terms.
🔵 Third-party claims (optional coverage) - Some policies include coverage for claims brought by non-employees, such as customers or vendors.

That said, not all policies are the same. Details such as exclusions, limits, and whether coverage is claims-made can significantly affect how the policy responds.

If you want to learn more about EPLI or review an existing policy, don’t hesitate to reach out to our team. We are here to help you ensure that your business is fully protected.
