How the quote works
Standard risks quote on screen in about 60 seconds at quote.approvedcasualty.com. Upload an application, email it, chat with the intake assistant or fill in the form. The tool reads the file, prices every limit option and sends you a quote link you can share with your client.
Larger or unusual accounts go to an underwriter, with terms back within 48 hours. The minimum premium starts at $515.
Package the account in one submission
Two add-ons sit on the same quote, so the client gets one price and you place one file.
- General liability. Optional CGL for the same insured, rated by class. See general liability.
- Legal expense. $50,000 per claim, $100,000 aggregate, with a 24/7 legal advice line. See legal expense insurance.
Files that fit and files that refer
The programs are built for small and mid-sized professional firms. Revenue above about $3M, limits above the on-screen tiers, open claims or unusual services refer to an underwriter instead of pricing on screen. A referral is not a decline. It means a person reads the file.
