Business Insurance

Commercial Insurance for Your Business

Running a business comes with risks — whether you're a contractor, a restaurant owner, or a tech startup operating from your home office. The right commercial insurance protects you from the unexpected so you can focus on what you do best.

At O'Brien Insurance Services, we work with Travelers, Hartford, Nationwide, Liberty Mutual, and other top commercial carriers to build coverage packages tailored to your business. Because we're independent, we can compare options across multiple carriers instead of giving you a take-it-or-leave-it quote from one company.

Start with a BOP — Build from There

For most small businesses, a Business Owner's Policy (BOP) is the foundation. It bundles general liability and commercial property insurance into one affordable package. From there, we can add on coverage as needed — commercial auto, professional liability, cyber insurance, or an umbrella policy for extra protection. You only pay for what your business actually needs.

Specialty Coverage That Sets Us Apart

We don't just cover the basics. O'Brien Insurance offers specialty lines that many local agencies can't touch:

Cyber liability insurance is critical in today's world. If your business handles any customer data — even just email addresses — a data breach can cost you thousands. Cyber liability covers notification costs, legal fees, and business interruption related to a cyber event. This is one of our specialties.

Hotel and motel insurance is another area where we shine. Hospitality businesses need specialized coverage, and we understand the unique risks — guest injuries, property damage, liquor liability — and have carrier relationships to get you the right coverage.

Apartment building insurance protects landlords and property investors. Whether you own a fourplex or a 50-unit complex, we can find coverage that includes property, liability, loss of rental income, and more.

Contractors and Construction

If you're a contractor, you need general liability, commercial auto, and possibly inland marine coverage for tools and equipment. Many general contractors also require their subs to carry coverage. We can help with contractor bonds and surety as well. We know the requirements because we work with contractors every day across the states we serve.

Don't Underinsure Your Business

One of the most common mistakes we see is businesses with coverage that's too low. A single lawsuit, property loss, or workplace injury can exceed your limits and put your personal assets at risk. We'll review your current coverage at no cost and make sure your limits match your actual exposure. If gaps exist, we'll fix them — and often at a lower premium than you're paying now because we shop multiple carriers.
