Disability Insurance

Disability Insurance provides a monthly income in the event you are unable to work due to an injury or illness. This type of coverage is crucial for self employed individuals and people who do not have disability insurance through their employer.

Many consumers and brokers don't look into disability insurance because they feel the product is too complicated or will not pay out a claim time.  This can be a fatal error that could put you and your family behind the eight ball.  The chances of someone become disabled are much higher than dying during your working years. Finding the right plan is not easy but is certainly possible with right broker who has expertise in the disability insurance market and understands the protocols and underwriting criteria for the major players.
