Our guest today is Dorene Stockman, an insurance agent with the Owens Group, an independent agency.
Dorene helped me get my own insurance policy, and I thought she was very knowledgeable and a helpful advisor on that process, so I asked her to be on the show to share her advice for independent professionals on the types of coverage we need to consider getting.

For those independt professionals that serve on the board of a non-profit or for-profit, we discuss directors & officers insurance
Dorene also shares tips on how to select a broker, how often you should re-quote your policy, and how to work most effectively with a broker.
Dorene prepared a much more exhaustive list of policy types that are applicable to narrower groups of independent professionals – if you email me at unleashed@umbrex.com I’ll send you a copy
