Business Owners Policies
A key part of your business is your physical space— your buildings, medical equipment, furniture, computers and more. Veterinary Business Property and Liability—also known as a Business Owner’s Policy—protects all of that and more.

Employment Practice Liability
Even the most disciplined practices can face allegations of illegal employment operations, and complaints with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) can be filed in a matter of minutes. Even if a case is meritless, allegations of harassment or wage and hour disputes are expensive to defend.
