Don’t worry though, because ACI is here to help, and we’re experienced professionals in this area. We’ve worked with countless individuals and businesses over the years who have had prior difficulty in obtaining business insurance in Florida. Such “high risk” businesses are turned down by many carriers. In other instances, the premiums are so outrageous that it would be entirely prohibitive for the business owner to pursue it as a legitimate option.
So why are some businesses in Florida deemed as high risk for insurance and workers compensation? This may include excessive claims within specific windows of time, lapses of coverage, non-payments of your premium and fraudulent claims. The latter is why the rates in Florida, which includes all insurance lines, are so high. Employees fake injuries. That is a fact. Until it happens to you, the impact it can have on your life is not measurable.
