It’s hard to believe you can be a New York City plumbing contractor and not be able to get a quote from a “Main Street Insurance Company” for both Commercial General Liability and Commercial Umbrella Liability coverage.

To add insult to injury, every year insurance companies still increase rates 5% to 10%+.  It’s like they think contractors are billionaires, can keep absorbing these increases because they have no other expenses to pay and still stay in business.

We would love to see these insurance executives and the legal society have their costs increase the way they increase YOURS!  Maybe they would have an epiphany, gain some empathy and stop doing this to New York contractors every freaking year!

Then they slip in additional warranties, limitations, restrictions and exclusions that make it harder to get customers to accept your insurance coverage and worse, makes it easier for them to deny a claim!

Finally, you have a well known insurance company offering coverage to New York City contractors but failing to point out their general and umbrella policies have a tricky worded “Labor Law” exclusion.  They don’t even state so in their “Sales Proposals!”  What’s horrific is that this agent doesn’t know what he’s selling!  He is so poorly trained and sells crappy policies to unsuspecting New York City contractors and doesn’t even point out a “Labor Law Exclusion in Their General & Umbrella Policies!” In our opinion, that’s absolutely criminal and he should have his license suspended because he’s “Hazardous to the Small Contractor’s Financial Well Being!”

Don’t think saving money by buying the above will fool anyone.  After you give them your money and bind coverage, you learn customers, owners, real estate managers and general contractors are not accepting coverage!  Then you have to cancel coverage and are penalized for doing so!  Plus you may have lost business by your coverage not being accepted.

We cannot believe how hard working contractors are so poorly treated by the insurance industry!  But we have a way to change that for YOU!

How would you like to get a FREE REVIEW of your Property, General, Umbrella, Auto, Workers’ Compensation and Group Health policies from a specialist who has 42 years experience and will NOT and we repeat NOT try to force you to do business with us. Our only hope is down the road, should you have a coverage issue, you consider turning to us for help! Not a bad offer for opening up a door for starting a new business relationship.

Have you ever had to go to a medical specialist for help? They without blinking charge hundreds, thousands of dollars an office visit. After a diagnosis, have you ever gone to other doctors for second or third opinions? Crazy thing about doctors, they charge like you have a bank full of Monopoly money!

The GREAT thing about us is we are encyclopedias of construction insurance knowledge, review your policies and point out any coverage issues, possibly show you ways to lower your costs and recommend insurance programs that might be a better fit for your company, ALL FOR FREE!  SO CONTACTING US WON’T COST YOU A DIME AND WE WON’T TRY TO SELL YOU ANYTHING!

Sarah S.

Gary is a considerate and honest guy. I have nothing but respect for him and 5 stars isn’t enough.

Nick S.

Over 20 years of excellent relationship that has met all our insurance needs.

Steve S.

My previous Workers Comp insurer was always trying to reclassify employees to put them in higher risk groups to raise the premium (despite no claims in over 5 years). Broker at the time wasn’t helping. Gary was recommended by a friend and did a phenomenal job. Found new insurer for less money who then, a year later, further reduced premium after the audit! I’m now paying 40% less than I used to and only 1/4 of what my old insurer wanted to jack the rate to.

SANJA C.

Gary is a great, responsible, professional…someone you can rely on. I would highly recommend him.

In the past few years have you’ve been hit by phony workers compensation claims, by a few rotten apple employees, for hundreds of thousands of dollars?

Have these claims caused your insurance company to drop coverage or drastically increase rates?

Do you have a debit experience modification factor (EMR)” of 1.25, 1.50, 1.75 or higher causing skyrocketing premiums and loss of work?

There are employees who habitually put in claims. Some do it every few years. Some do it within days of employment. Almost all receive help from an attorney. Together they can destroy a company’s loss experience.

Then there are people not even your employees that go directly to your state’s Workers Comp Board to file claims. One day when you open your mail you learn you have a new claim that wasn’t reported which puts you in a an uncomfortable and disadvantaged situation with your company.

Here’s what happened to one employer. He’s a New York City General Contractor. One of his employees was installing flooring and while carrying flooring slats pinched his finger. Employee filed claim, insurance company paid for his medical bills and a few weeks lost wages. When payment was about to stop he started complaining his shoulder hurt. The carrier then had to increase their reserve to over six figures.

For same employer, he hired a person that had a soccer injury five years previous to employment. Within weeks of starting work, person put in claim for a knee injury. No one saw him get hurt. Actually he told several co-workers of what he was doing. They told the boss. The carrier still had to set up a reserve for $310,000.

Between two claims, amounting to over $400,000, his carrier non-renewed coverage. Please note prior to claims he never had any. He also had the same carrier for 5 years.

What can you do if you have a run of bad luck or a few rotten apples destroying your loss experience? We have a GREAT SOLUTION but before we tell you, read about these 4 cases.

Examples:

1. We helped a Long Island Tree Contractor with over $1.2 million in claims get coverage for half what he was paying. His carrier was charging him $200,000.

2. We helped a Queens Demolition contractor whose company non renewed him due to $650,000+ in claims replace coverage with a carrier whose rates were lower than what he previously paid.

3. We helped a Brooklyn General Contractor who was being non-renewed by his carrier with over $1 million in losses replace coverage with slightly lower rates.

4. We helped another Brooklyn General Contractor who had $1 million in claims, most scam claims, replace coverage at comparable pricing.

When an employer has a run of bad luck their only alternative is to get coverage through a state or assigned risk plan. When they do they usually pay through the nose. Being in contact we hear how they STRUGGLE. Customer’s owing them money doesn’t help.

FREE MONEY!  HOW WOULD YOU LIKE TO GET MONEY BACK ON YOUR PAST SEVEN (7) YEAR WORKER’S COMPENSATION POLICY’S? 

There are mistakes insurance companies make when calculating premiums.  There are credit’s employers are entitled to that may not have been applied. Experience Modification Factors have mistakes.  Audits have mistakes.  Working on Contingency basis, we review your policies and if there’s mistakes get you money back.  Throw away your skepticism!  This is a real service and it’s not some bulls__t gimmick!  It’s a complete WIN situation for YOU!  Interested call Gary Wallach at 914-806-5853

Have you ever had to go to a medical specialist for help? They without blinking charge hundreds, thousands of dollars an office visit.  After a diagnosis, have you ever gone to other doctors for second or third opinions?  Crazy thing about doctors, they charge like you have a bank full of Monopoly money!

The GREAT thing about us is we are encyclopedias of construction insurance knowledge, review your policies and point out any coverage issues, possibly show you ways to lower your costs and recommend insurance programs that might be a better fit for your company. CONTACTING US WON’T COST YOU A DIME AND WE WON’T TRY TO SELL YOU ANYTHING! 

CONTRACTOR ALERT!  A lot of brokers sell sh_t policies.  Your policy may have exclusions that are wrong for your company and the broker that sold it to you is the wrong person to go to for help because they don’t understand it themselves!

We speak to tens of brokers a year.  So many of them have no clue what they’re doing.  When we ask them a question, they answer incorrectly. Sure they may know more than their client’s but they are “HAZARDOUS TO CONTRACTORS WEALTH!”  Not too hard to get an insurance brokers license, open shop and start selling policies.  Worse, we see brokers selling policies with HORRIFIC EXCLUSIONS, lying to contractors all so they can make a few dollars commission!  Does a “Red Light Ever Flash In Your Head Because You Feel Your Broker Isn’t Being Truthful?”  If yes, back yourself up by getting a FREE review from us Today!

Many N.Y.C. contractors are insured through Surplus Line Carriers.  Their company lawyers design their policies to protect them, NOT YOU!  That is why it’s important your business is double and triple checked.  Our FREE review helps you to do that!

Over the years, we have reviewed hundreds of contractor’s policies. We have found many, if they have specific types of claims, will have NO coverage.  Have any idea what an uncovered claim can cost you?  It will probably knock most of you out of business!

A lot of brokers issue certificates that have serious mistakes. There’s usually a disclaimer that gets them off the hook.  But NOT you!  It happens because they do not understand the coverage afforded by your policy.  Here’s a secret the industry doesn’t want you to know…most brokers don’t!

For example, if you work for a real estate management company that requires YOU to list five additional insured’s under your liability policy, your policy may just cover ONE?  This can cause two MONSTER problems!  Avoid this headache!  Let us double check coverage for YOU!

If you’re spending tens, hundreds of thousands of dollars for your construction insurance, shouldn’t you get the right coverage?  Second opinions are always good to get!  Especially when there’s no charge involved!  Especially when it’s from a construction insurance specialist who has one of the best reputations in the industry!

Construction Insurance

Contractors Insurance

One of the most common construction industry accidents is falls from heights, which is why it’s crucial that you have in place fall protection systems for your workers.

One of the best ways to prevent injuries and death from falls is by using a fall-arrest system. But while these systems can save lives, they can cause suspension trauma if the worker is not rescued and brought to ground level as soon as possible and is instead left suspended in an upright position, with their legs dangling.

Because the worker is suspended in an upright position with their legs hanging, blood begins to accumulate in the legs. This is commonly called venous pooling (the accumulation of too much blood in the veins), which reduces the flow of oxygenated blood to the heart and brain.

Remaining in this position for a long time can cause the worker to pass out and the longer they hang in place, the more it can result in serious health problems — and even death.

The warning signs of suspension trauma are:

• Faintness

• Nausea

• Dizziness

• Sweating

• Paleness

• Narrowing of vision.

Certain factors can also contribute to the risk of experiencing suspension trauma, such as:

• Weather conditions.

• The onset of shock and injuries sustained during a fall.

• Blood loss.

• Overall health.

How to avoid suspension trauma

Safe, prompt rescue is the key to preventing suspension trauma. The sooner a worker can be rescued, the less likely they are to endure such trauma.

During the rescue, care should be taken to slowly put the victim back on the ground. Try to avoid suddenly letting them into a horizontal position, which can cause deoxygenated blood to flow back into the body (reflow syndrome) and cause damage to the brain and other organs — and even cause the heart to stop.

Suspended workers awaiting rescue can take some action to guard against injury, including:

• Adopting a sitting position, if possible.

• Moving into a horizontal position as much as possible.

• Using their legs to push off from a hard surface, keeping the muscles active.

• Pumping legs frequently to maintain blood flow and prevent venous pooling.

One of the primary ways to slow the progression of suspension trauma is to stand up. When standing, the leg muscles must contract to provide support and maintain balance and these actions also put pressure on the veins. This pressure, along with a series of one-way valves in the veins, helps blood get to the heart and reduces the amount of blood pooling in the legs.

Workers can stand by using the trauma-relief straps that are attached in pouches on the side of the fall-arrest harness. When suspended, the worker can deploy the trauma-relief straps, which provide a loop that they can put their feet into and press against to simulate standing up.

Some additional suggestions to keep in mind:

• Train workers on the rescue procedures for suspension trauma and how to avoid reflow syndrome.

• Have a plan in place to rescue suspended workers quickly and get them immediate medical attention.

• When rescuing a suspended worker, do not lay them flat into a horizontal position; instead keep them sitting up with their legs straight out in front of them.

• After a rescue, keep the worker calm and monitor them so they do not faint and fall into a horizontal position.

• Get a rescued worker immediate medical attention and ensure that medical personnel are aware of the possibility of suspension trauma.

Don’t leave your fall protection plan hanging. Learn proper prevention and prompt rescue techniques to prevent suspension trauma.

One of the keys to having your insurance claims paid promptly is to file them in a timely manner.

Virtually all commercial insurance policies — from liability and workers’ compensation to commercial auto and property — require that a notice of claims be filed within a certain amount of time after an incident. For businesses that procrastinate, that’s a costly mistake when they learn their insurer refuses to pay the claim.

It may seem counterintuitive for a business not to file a claim when they learn of an incident, but there are a number of reasons a business might make this bad decision:

• An insured may not feel responsible for a slip and fall accident on their premises when it happens. They may instead wait to see if the insured sues, and that could be months later. This robs the insurer of doing its own investigation of the potential claim so it can better defend against it.

• An insured may feel that the damage their business suffered in a storm was negligible and not worth filing a claim over. They may fix it themselves and later find out that the damage was much more extensive than they originally thought.

• The insured may assume the claim will just “go away” and they wait thinking that if they file a claim their insurer will raise their rates.

To avoid this fate, familiarize yourself with the claims filing time provisions of your policies. They all have them, but they will not often include an exact amount of days that you have for filing a claim, and conditions vary.

For example:

Commercial general liability policies — These will typically include a condition that the insured “must see to it that [its insurer is] notified as soon as practicable of an ‘occurrence’ or an offense which may result in a claim.”

It further requires the insured to “immediately record the specifics of the claim or ‘suit’,” and to “notify the insurer as soon as practicable” of a claim or suit brought against the insured.

Business auto policies — These typically include a condition stating that an insured must give its insurer “prompt notice of the ‘accident’ or ‘loss’,” and the insured should further “immediately send the insurer copies of any request, demand, order, notice, summons or legal paper.”

Why filing late is so bad

Failing to file a claim on time with the insurer not only violates your insurance policy conditions, but it also robs the insurer of being able to conduct a thorough investigation and assessment. And getting a late start on the investigation can instead drive the cost of that claim higher.

The worst mistake you can make is failing to notify your insurer of a lawsuit against your organization. That could result in the insurer not being given time to answer the complaint in a timely manner, resulting in a default judgment against your firm.

The takeaway

Ways in which an insured can avoid late reporting include:

• Reporting claims immediately after incidents occur. The sooner the better.

• Consider also reporting incidents to your insurer that you are not initially sure will necessitate making a claim.

• For liability claims, report incidents even if they do not result in a third party threatening to sue. The earlier the insurer is aware of an incident, the faster they can begin gathering evidence and talking to witnesses.

• Familiarizing yourself with your policy conditions and training your staff in how to identify what could be a potential claim.

• Notifying your carrier immediately in the event your organization is sued.

• Appointing someone in your firm as a point person to whom your staff would refer potential claims. They would also be responsible for reporting to management and to your insurer.

• Checking your umbrella and/or excess insurance policies to see if they include different notice requirements than what are on the primary insurance policy. Sometimes they differ even though an excess policy is tied to a primary policy.

Here are Just a Few Issues We Can Help With:                                                                                 

1. Get you coverage if you’re now without.

2. Unhappy with your company’s audits? Get you into a program who doesn’t do invasive annual audits or company does a simplified audit which is much less invasive and costs you a lot less in accounting fees.

3. Unhappy with your rates? Find you better.

4. Had a run of bad luck where losses are causing difficulty getting affordable coverage? We may be able to get you coverage at better rates.  We did so for two contractors both had over $1 million in losses.

5. Is your company misclassifying employee payrolls? This can cause thousands in over payments.  We have programs that split payrolls by trades.

6. Cover you in multiple states. State plans only usually just cover in their state.  When you operate outside your state for weeks at a time, you will not have the right coverage.  One claim can knock you out of business.  We have programs that can cover you in multiple states.

7. We have a program where you pay just $200 to bind coverage then report payrolls monthly and pay what you owe for past month. If you have no payroll you have no workers comp cost.

8. FREE MONEY! A lot of contractors have overpaid due to mistakes made in payroll calculations. Going back up to 7 years, we can help get you your money back!  There are no up front charges to perform this service for you.  We only get paid if you get money back!

9. A lot of insurance brokers charge $500 to $5,000 policy fees or up to 10% service fees. We find this ridiculous, greedy and it’s a “Tell” as to how these agencies  think…greed, greed, greed.  Who comes first?  They do!  Unless we have to place you in a state plan, WE DO NOT charge fees.

10. We offer numerous Payroll Service/Workers’ Compensation programs so if you’re not happy with your current plan, try one of ours.

The owners of a new company found a building on the market for an affordable price, so they bought it. Built in the 1940s to manufacture aircraft for the war effort, the metal structure had a large open space.

The company occupying this space was in the software development business and the building was much larger than it needed, but the price made it seem like a sensible move. However, the owners got a surprise from their insurance agent about property coverage.

Most commercial insurance policies will cover the cost of replacing a building and its contents exactly as everything was before the loss. But the cost of reconstructing this old building to its original state was much higher than both its purchase price and that of other similar properties due to its unique architecture and out-of-production artisan materials used in its construction.

The company did not need that much insurance, and paying the higher premium for it would have been wasteful, so the owners asked the agent for alternatives. What if, they asked, we don’t rebuild our building as it was and go for a less expensive replacement?

After a fire or some other catastrophe destroys a building, its owners may decide not to rebuild or replace with a similar structure for a number of reasons:

• As was the case with the software company, the current building’s design may be impractical. If it were to rebuild, it would almost certainly choose a smaller building with a different layout.

• Old buildings often include materials that builders do not commonly use today, such as plaster and lathe. Reconstruction with these materials is expensive and often unnecessary for the continued operation of the business.

• The company may decide to consolidate the operations of two locations into one and not rebuild the property at all.

• Depending on the building’s age, it may not meet current building codes. Rebuilding the structure up to code could be extremely costly.

The insurance options

There are two standard business property insurance policies:

An actual cash value policy — This pays for the cost of replacing any damaged property, minus an amount for depreciation.

A replacement value policy — This type of policy compensates for the full cost of replacing damaged property and contents using new materials of the same quality. This naturally entails higher premiums than for actual cash value coverage.

Due to the lower premium, the software firm opted for an actual cash value policy. This would allow them, in the event of a claim, to replace the building with a new one that costs less to construct than replacing the structure — or they could cash out and not replace the building.

The actual cash value policy may also provide a small amount of additional insurance (typically the lesser of 5% of the insurance on the building, or $10,000) to cover the increased cost of construction resulting from changes in building codes.

Other alternatives

If you feel that your business does not need an exact replacement of its current building(s), you should ask us about adding a “functional building valuation” endorsement to your policies.

This type of endorsement establishes a limit of insurance somewhere between actual cash value and full replacement cost and allows the property owner to replace the building with one that fulfills the same function as the old one at a lower cost.

It would also be wise to look at increasing your policy’s “ordinance or law” coverage to provide additional insurance for higher costs from new building codes.

With the right attention to detail, a business can get the property insurance it needs without having to waste money on unnecessary coverage.

Are you tired of getting proctologist like audits from your Workers’ Compensation insurance company every year?

Having to come up with every type of document known to the accounting industry to prove payrolls being reported are accurate?

What about having to show every check you wrote during the policy year?  Is that a hardship on you?

Explaining every cash payment you made?

Or getting charged for out of state subcontractors you have workers compensation certificates for but it’s still not enough to satisfy your insurance carrier?

We offer Workers’ Compensation programs that can get you away from invasive, annual audits. 

As a matter of fact, you may not have to go through an annual audit each and every year or ever or if you do, minimal paperwork is required!

How would you like to pay just what you owe during the course of your policy period and not get a bill for thousands of dollars months after your policy period expires?

When you have no weekly payroll, how would you like to have no workers compensation cost to pay for that week either?

We have programs where you pay what you owe during the policy year and no surprises months after the policy period is done!  Some of our programs, because they’re set up  properly from the start, may not put you through annual audits because they have no need to!

Many a prospect has complained about their company’s audits.  They snapped because of the invasiveness of their audit and even though they had to pay more to be with another company, they asked us to help them do so.

There are a few companies whose audits are so, so extreme.  They ask for every document under the sun.  It’s like you are not to be trusted until proven innocent!  Boy do they put you through the grinder!  You don’t have to be subjected to this kind of treatment if that’s what you deal with now!  We can offer you different!

We have sat in an audit where the carrier asked what 5 subcontractors got paid. Why? Because if those subs showed a different figure, someone was going to be in big trouble like being prosecuted for fraud!

We believe in fairness and carriers should get paid what they’re owed.  We also believe the workers compensation rules should be used fairly and not against but in favor of clients!

Why work with us?  We bring expert advice to our client’s so that their interests are properly served and they pay what they owe, not a penny more!

Workers Compensation Audits

Mold is a serious problem in a number of older homes, apartment buildings and commercial buildings.

It’s often caused by poor maintenance and unchecked water leaks that over time create conditions that are ripe for the growth of the fungus.

The problem is that this mold can aggravate tenants’ allergies, and there are plenty of cases where they sue landlords over being sickened by mold. And juries round the country have awarded large settlements (sometimes in the millions of dollars) to tenants after they claimed they were sickened by mold in their homes, apartments or offices.

Worse, it’s difficult to make a claim on your landlord’s policy if you are sued by a tenant over mold issues, as many of the policies exclude pollution.

Fortunately, there are steps a landlord can take to reduce the chances of being sued by a tenant for mold issues.

While most states do not have mold-specific laws, they do have negligence laws. And most often, mold growth is the direct result of poor maintenance or just pure negligence as some landlords may detect a leak and not bother fixing it. Leaking water and moist conditions are the breeding ground for mold.

In order for a landlord to be considered negligent in a premises liability lawsuit, they must be aware that the problem exists or should have been aware that the problem existed.

When the issue is toxic mold exposure, it’s easy for a landlord to be held liable for having allowed a toxic environment to fester.

Steps you can take to avoid being sued

You can take steps to reduce the chances of being sued by a tenant. It may take some extra time and upfront expense, but it will be worth it if you can avoid being targeted with litigation.

Require tenants to immediately notify you about water damage, broken dehumidifiers, condensation or related problems — In your lease you should require that your tenants notify you about a leak or other water issue that they become aware of. This will allow you to remediate the problem once they call and also provide you with a strong defense if they later try to sue, claiming you are liable for damages.

Some sample language that you can include in the lease could include advising tenants to keep their dwellings clean, remove visible moisture on windows, walls, ceilings, floors and other surfaces as soon as possible, and notify landlords — in writing — about any signs of water leaks, water infiltration or mold.

Require tenants to carry renter’s insurance — Your insurance will cover the structure itself, but renter’s insurance will cover any mold damage to your tenants’ property and belongings.

Stay to a strict maintenance schedule — You should schedule times with your tenants so you can regularly inspect for leaks in pipes, windows and roofs, as well as water staining, and moisture and condensation (including in the HVAC system). Leaks are usually where mold starts.

During inspections, besides looking for those obvious issues, you should look out for mildewy, musty odors, and look for mold and fungus. If you find any issues, remediate them promptly.

Respond quickly when a tenant complains — Proactive landlords that fix problems their tenants raise, have a much less chance of being sued. Therefore, if one of your tenants reports a mold or moisture problem, you should immediately have the property inspected by a professional.

If they detect any mold, mildew and/or leaks that may be causing it, you should hire professionals to remove the mold and repair any problems that were causing the growth in the first place.

Make sure to document any inspections you conduct, as well as any repairs, cleanup and remediation.

Finally, you should make sure to follow up with your tenants to make sure the problem hasn’t recurred. A good idea is to check with them a week later, a month later and then six months later. But before that six-month mark, you may want to have the property reinspected for mold.

Insurance

The typical landlord’s insurance policy covers:

Property damage — From fire or other natural catastrophe.

Lost rental income/rental default — Should something cause your property to be uninhabitable (severe mold, termites, a rat infestation or a sinkhole), this provides temporary rental reimbursement to cover the income you’d otherwise receive if tenants could be occupying the property. It also covers lost income from a tenant’s rental default.

Liability — This is coverage for the medical or legal costs that might ensue if the tenant or a visitor suffers injury due to a property maintenance issue.

The owners of a California flooring installation company allegedly underreported their payroll amounts to workers’ compensation insurers to the tune of $30 million, costing the insurance company almost $4 million in premiums. The men are each facing three felony charges.

These are the potential consequences for those who deliberately falsify their payroll records and reports to the companies providing their workers’ compensation insurance. To avoid this pitfall and the fallout, it’s important that employers understand the vital role accurate payroll reporting and records play in determining premiums.

The importance of payroll records

Workers’ comp premiums reflect the amount of a business’s payroll and the riskiness of its operations. Carpenters suffer more frequent and severe injuries than do architects, so the premium rates for construction firms are higher than those for architecture firms.

Monthly, quarterly or after each policy term, the insurer audits the employer’s payroll records to determine the accurate amount of payroll and the proper classification of the work performed.

The carrier applies the reported payroll to the premium rates, calculates the premium and compares it to the deposit the employer paid at the start of the period. The insurer then returns premium to the employer if the deposit was too high or bills them if it was too low.

If an employer’s records are incomplete or not up to date, the insurer may estimate the classification and payroll based on the information available. Those estimates do not often favor the employer.

Avoiding temptation

While some may be tempted to provide artificially low payroll amounts to insurers (by, for example, labeling some workers as “independent contractors” rather than employees), the consequences can be serious. An insurance company that determines its customer was untruthful will cancel its coverage at the first opportunity.

Also, the insurance contract gives them the right to pursue the employer for the shortfall in premiums. The employer could end up on the wrong side of a court judgment.

Deliberately concealing information about workers to reduce premiums is also a crime in many states.

A New York construction labor supply broker conspired with his insurance broker to mislead five insurers about the size of his operation and work performed by his employees. Their actions cost one insurer $1 million in reduced premiums and left injured workers without workers’ comp claims payments for more than a year.

The insurance broker pleaded guilty to two felony charges. The labor supply broker is awaiting trial.

Depending on the state and the amounts involved, a conviction for workers’ comp fraud can carry lengthy prison sentences and hefty fines. In Minnesota, someone convicted of insurance fraud for more than $35,000 faces up to 20 years in prison and a fine of up to $100,000. Two people in California received 10-year sentences.

The lesson: Keep accurate and honest payroll records for your insurance company and pay the premiums you owe. It will be better for you and your business in the long run.
