Complex liability solutions from The Hartford help protect businesses that are vulnerable to “higher hazard” liabilities. Our underwriters, risk engineering consultants and liability claims specialists are experienced in handling the risks and special coverage requirements of businesses that face unique risk exposures.
Without the proper precautions and business hazard insurance coverage, a business with “high hazard” exposures could be devastated by a costly lawsuit – even to the point that it does not survive. We believe this is avoidable and The Hartford can help. We help businesses handle “high hazard” exposures and manage risks on a daily basis. Our extensive experience and broad range of coverage options are specifically designed to help protect against multiple and unique exposures make us uniquely qualified to help businesses like yours.
In addition, we regularly work with our business customers to assess and help them reduce the risk of accidents happening in the first place. We know that businesses can suffer as the result of a liability claim. That’s why we offer industry leading assistance to help reduce the impact a claim may have on a company’s operations.
