Commercial Insurance for Biotech & Life Sciences

Your science is years in the making. A single gap should not undo it.

For a biotech or life-sciences company, the exposures span the lab and the market: product and clinical-trial liability, expensive equipment and property, intellectual property, the data behind your research, and a highly skilled workforce you cannot afford to lose. As an independent agency representing 100+ carriers, we build coverage around your stage and your science, coordinate it with the benefits your team expects, and review it as you grow. People over policies, since 2007.

What it covers, plainly

A life-sciences company’s coverage is really several policies working together.

Product & Clinical Trial Liability

For companies moving toward or through trials and market, coverage for products, clinical trials, and the liability they carry. Investors and partners often require it.

Property & Equipment

Labs, specialized equipment, and the materials and samples inside them, often high-value and hard to replace.

General Liability

Third-party bodily injury and property damage, required by leases, investors, and partners.

Cyber & Intellectual Property

Research data and IP are the company’s core asset. Covers breach response and the exposure that comes with sensitive data.

Workers Compensation & Management Liability (D&O)

Required workers comp, plus the D&O that investors and boards expect as you raise capital.

Umbrella & Group Benefits

Extra liability limits, plus the strong medical, dental, and life benefits a low-turnover, highly skilled workforce expects.

How we work

What a commercial advisor should actually do.

Your advisor

A named human, not a 1-800 number.

You get one advisor who learns your operation, knows your team, and remembers what happened at the last renewal. Same person at year five as at year one.

Proactive reviews

We call before renewal, not after a problem.

Annual proactive reviews. Quarterly check-ins for fast-growth clients. If you opened a new location, hired your fiftieth employee, or signed a major contract, we want to know before your policy does.

Carrier breadth

Independent access to diverse markets.

We're not tied to one carrier's appetite. Travelers, Liberty Mutual, Hartford, Cincinnati, Chubb, and dozens of other standard and specialty markets, we shop where your risk profile actually fits.

One roof

Commercial, benefits, and personal - coordinated.

Your business coverage, your team's benefits, and your personal insurance can all live under one advisory relationship. No more retelling your story to three different people.

Growing Fast?

Your business grows. Your coverage should keep up.

A broker who just renews your policy is fine, right up until it isn't. When you add a location, a truck, or fifteen employees and nobody updates your coverage. When a renewal comes back 22% higher with no explanation. When a claim lands and you need someone who already knows your operation. That's when a renew-and-forget broker costs you.

You need a named advisor who learns how your business actually runs, anticipates the risks before they find you, and makes sure your coverage evolves as fast as you do. We're independently owned, so your account team doesn't get shuffled after the next private-equity acquisition. The same advisor stays with you as you grow.
