Since 1992 we've insured Pacific Northwest hotels, restaurants, bars, and entertainment venues — with deep knowledge of Washington dram-shop laws, responsible-service requirements, and the liquor-liability limits that protect venues serving alcohol from catastrophic claims.
Specialized protection for nightclubs, concert venues, and late-night operations — including assault & battery, crowd management, and performer liability — with relationships in specialty markets that standard carriers often decline or heavily restrict.
Same-day certificates for landlords, event contracts, and vendor requirements so you never lose an event or lease over paperwork — plus host-liquor and event-cancellation expertise, and aggressive claims advocacy when a liquor, slip-and-fall, or assault claim occurs.
