The entertainment industry creates fun, educational and even
inspirational movies, TV, film and more. With this activity comes a certain
amount of risk. Risks can include lost or damaged equipment, injury on sets, copy
write litigation, injury to cast and crew and more. Our job is to partner with
our clients to help them reduce their risk and protect
their assets.
Here are some of our key products and services:
Insurance For Props, Sets and Wardrobe: Covers damage to specific
equipment during production or events.

defense for the production company against lawsuits alleging unauthorized use
of title, format, ideas, characters, plots, plagiarism, unfair competition or
piracy.

Insuring Equipment: Covers cameras, sound/lighting equipment and
rented or leased equipment.
Cast Insurance: Covers production companies’ extra expenses in the
