Importance of Property and Liability Insurance
Any business like any individual needs to get insured as there is always a risk of loss either intentional like miscreants raking havoc or unintentional like natural calamities. Business insurance is different from personal insurance in the aspect that while your residence may have assets, it doesn't have employees or machinery like a business house nor do residences have liabilities. So, it is important for a businessman to get those insured.
Business houses are not a standalone entity like your car or house. In most of the cases, business houses serve the public. That brings an expectation of responsible conduct to the business owner and their operations. Any disappointment, brought upon by the seeming lack of this conduct can lead to a lawsuit against the business house. No matter how well you plan, after all "to err is human" and even trivial apparent misconduct can bring a lawsuit against you. And if not insured, you may have to pay for the lawsuit from your own pocket.
The most basic type of business insurance covers basic areas of your business. The common example is commercial lines insurance. Many business houses go for this type of insurance. The other common type is professional liability insurance which is very helpful, especially if you are offering services to public. This second type of insurance is rather costly and is optional for business houses, offering products. Along with these two, most common policies cover basic needs of any business house. But even then you may not be sufficiently insured if you are offering some unique service or product. It is also not sufficient if you are shifting your business domain which will lead to change of risks involved and assets probably.
Professional services can be included in this as a professional is someone who sells his expertise and knowledge of some specific area. Like products can cause harm or machinery can get stolen, professionals are prone to make an error or omit something mistakenly which may lead to malfunctioning of services and can bring on a lawsuit. One should be sufficiently covered against this.
Thus, it is very important to know what type of insurance your business needs. Depending on the business domain, you may need commercial liability insurance or an "errors and omissions insurance". It is also important to find the correct insurance agent who can help you with his knowledge and know-how of insurances. Unless you cover your business properly, you are risking not only your business but the dreams and livelihood.

Don't Delay! Insure Your Property Today
Property is often one of the largest and financially rewarding investments we make, to let out that property to tenants can be financially rewarding, and therefore must be protected.
As a landlord you must buy landlords home insurance to protect your liability - if your tenant was to suffer an electric shock from a wobbly plug socket for example, or trip over a frayed carpet - you are liable for damages - which can often be extensive.
As the property owner you are also liable for damage your tenants may cause to adjoining or nearby property too. Landlords home insurance will protect your liability if your tenant was to start a fire and it spread to the house next door for example - damages which could extend into the hundreds of thousands if not more!
Landlords home insurance is a 'must have', and even if you know your tenants and are sure they would not seek damages from you - you cannot rely on their guests, the neighbours, or passers by having the same loyalty, if a slate flies off the roof and strikes the postman - he is unlikely to simply 'let you off' just because he has delivered the mail to your house for the past few years!
It is often claimed that landlords home insurance can be expensive and unnecessary, these claims are simply used as an excuse for landlords to save a few pounds, not thinking through the implications of not being insured. There are all the obvious risks such as flooding, fire, malicious damage etc...
Which can be affordable to repair in some cases. Some landlords would rather pay out for damage such as those rather than pay a policy excess, or rely on being able to claim the money back from the tenant. I wonder how many of those landlords have considered a total loss? What if the tenant burns the house to the ground? I don't think the tenants deposit would cover the site clearance, rebuilding, and re-fitting of the entire property - every last brick! Don't forget - for mortgaged properties, the mortgage company are unlikely to hold the mortgage payments, purely because the landlord did not buy landlords home insurance.

Disability Insurance and Fraud Prevention
It is a bit easier for less than honest people to commit disability insurance fraud than other types of crimes. As a result, insurance companies are typically more wary of disability claims. With a life insurance claim, it is quite evident when someone becomes deceased.
Disability insurance is a little more open to fraudulent claims. Most insurance companies assign a caseworker and conduct annual reviews to limit the amount of exposure to fraud that may take place. Without these regular reviews, it is easier for a person to take advantage of this particular type of insurance than most other types of personal insurance.
It is the responsibility of the policyholder to prove that their injury or illness is the reason they are unable to earn a living. Many people claim the privileges of disability insurance but conveniently forget they have responsibilities as well. The most common cause of disability claim delays or denials is not with the insurance company; it is with the insured not giving them the proof required.
Be Ready to Provide Proof of Disability
Before any disability insurance plan will start paying a claim they require proof that there exists an injury or illness that is severe enough to prevent that person from earning an income. Insurance companies will never tell a person that they don't believe that such a condition exists, but they will, however, require a statement from a doctor.
The definition of disability is not purely on how a person feels. They may very well feel rotten but unless they are able to get a licensed physician to certify that they are unable to work, they are not likely to receive any disability insurance money.
While there may be other reasons why a claim is delayed or denied, most of the time, the adverse actions were caused by the insured not being able to get a doctor to verify the injury or illness that is preventing them from working.
DISABILITY TO-DO LIST: Read the Policy
Before something bad happens, read the disability policy. It is important to know, in the event that a person suddenly becomes seriously ill, or worse, disabled and unable to work, that the benefits offered are sufficient and there is an understanding of the required procedures in order to move forward.
Certification of the Illness or Injury
Secondly, anyone that is involved in an accident or becomes ill needs to contact a doctor who can certify that this person is medically unable to work. Otherwise the disability claim will most likely be denied.
