Our Policy And Its Features
So how will our Professional Liability Insurance protect your agency?
To start, for the past 20 years we have partnered with AXIS PRO to underwrite our liability insurance programs. AXIS PRO is known throughout the advertising community as having an extensive understanding of the advertising industry. From underwriting, to claims, to loss control services, their depth of knowledge and experience in our unique line of business is unparalleled.
In developing the policy, AXIS PRO along with 4A's Benefits, and a specially created task force of 4A's members, generated the criteria to meet the needs of all agency types — so no stone has been left unturned.
