Read all client reviews“Great price. Dean is the best! I never worry about insurance because I know that Dean has my back. I get great coverage at good prices, and he makes it easy every year. I wouldn't even think of going anywhere else.”
Roger Goff
Google review · October 2026
“It's been a pleasure working with Dean. I started my own law firm in mid-2020, and interviewed a few insurance agents to help obtain general, cyber, and professional insurance policies. I ultimately chose Dean given how efficient he was in getting everything started. He knew the specific information he needed from me, made it as easy as possible to fill out forms, and didn't waste time trying to "sell" his company above others. He has continued to be prompt, responsive, and efficient throughout the relationship and I look forward to continuing to work with him in the future.”
Dorothy Yamamoto
Partner at Michael Yamamoto LLP

One of the most common mistakes I see attorneys make: letting their professional liability policy lapse between firms. Here's the problem — most malpractice policies are claims-made. If your coverage lapses for even a few days, you can lose protection for your entire prior work history. Always confirm your new firm's retroactive date matches your prior carrier's before you start. If not, negotiate it — or buy tail coverage from your old carrier. Your reputation took years to build. Don't let a paperwork gap erase it.

CPAs — your E&O insurance is NOT just a checkbox. A client who loses money on a bad investment and decides to blame their accountant can file a claim worth multiples of your annual fee. I've seen claims against CPAs for: • Missed deductions on a tax return • Errors in a compiled financial statement • Advice that led to a bad business decision The CPA Protector Plan covers all of this — and it's more affordable than most people think. If you haven't reviewed your coverage limits this year, now is the time.

If you're a tech founder in California and your SaaS contract requires $1M in Tech E&O — do you actually have it? General liability does NOT cover professional errors in your software. Tech E&O covers: ✅ Software bugs that cause client financial loss ✅ Data migration failures ✅ System outages causing downtime damages ✅ Errors in professional IT consulting And here's what most people don't realize: the cost is lower than you think, especially when you compare multiple carriers. Don't let a missing policy hold up your next enterprise contract.
One form.
Competitive estimates.
Stop spending hours contacting individual carriers. With PRIA, you fill out a single form and we handle everything — delivering competitive premium estimates from multiple top-rated carriers directly to you.
