Where our production and special event work goes.
An honest assessment of Zurich from an agency that places their entertainment business — a global carrier whose value to us is a specific appetite for film, video production and special events rather than a broad small-business book.
Tell us the situation.
One licensed human replies the same business day — not five agents, not an auto-responder. If the policy you have is already the right one, we will tell you.
We use this to quote and service your insurance, and we do not sell it or pass it to lead networks. Privacy policy.
What we place with Zurich.
Film and video production
Half of what we place here, written as a package rather than as separate lines.
Without it — A production needs auto, inland marine and liability answering as one thing, because a claim rarely respects the boundaries.
Special events
Single-event and series cover, which is a market that comes and goes and Zurich stays in.
Without it — A venue or a permit names a limit, and an event without it does not happen.
Equipment in transit
Inland marine alongside the auto and liability, which is how production gear actually moves.
Without it — Rented camera and grip packages are your responsibility from collection to return.
What people ask us about Zurich.
What do you place with Zurich?
Motion picture and video production more than anything, then special events, written as packages combining commercial auto, inland marine and general liability.
Are they a small business market?
Not really, and that is the honest framing. Zurich is a large global commercial carrier and our book with them is specialist rather than broad — they are who we go to for a production or an event, not for a main-street package.
Why go through a broker instead of buying direct?
Because it does not cost you anything, which is the part that surprises people. Broker compensation is built into the carrier’s rate whether you use one or not — buying direct does not remove the cost, it removes the person being paid to be on your side of it.
Commercial insurance is 96% of what we do — it is not a department here, it is the whole business. Not ready to talk? The guides answer the questions this page raises in more depth. Already insured with us and need a certificate or a policy change? Ask the service team rather than starting a quote — it is faster and it goes to the people whose job it is. We also write home and auto, which is usually cheaper alongside the business policy than apart from it.
