Life insurance and AD&D

Life insurance and accidental death and dismemberment insurance

What would happen if the people at your firm could no longer provide for their loved ones? We designed life insurance and accidental death and dismemberment (AD&D) insurance products to help.

With life insurance, your firm's partners, sole proprietors and employees can rest assured knowing they can help their loved ones:

  • Pay a mortgage, taxes, funeral costs or other bills
  • Maintain their family's lifestyle
  • Provide for children, a partner, parents or others

AD&D insurance will help with finances if there is an accident, especially a serious one. No one wants to worry about how to pay the bills while coping with a life-changing event.

When you elect this coverage, it becomes mandatory for all partners, sole proprietors and employees of the firm.
