A Note from Steve Nesbitt

As the effects of the economic turmoil seep into our everyday lives, more and more companies are experiencing hardships first hand. At S.S. Nesbitt, we are committed to helping you protect your company, your employees and yourself during these hard times.

Because of instability in the market, companies are experiencing a decline in their own financial portfolio. If you are among those who offer investment funds to employees, it is likely you have dealt with fiduciary liability claims. These claims often come from employees who have suffered losses in their retirement or benefits portfolio and are looking for someone to blame. S.S. Nesbitt can work with you to decrease your liability and protect your company from more losses associated with these claims.

In order to keep the financial situation in the black, many companies have been forced to lay off employees. If this is a reality for your company, make sure you are prepared for the inherent risk of being sued by a terminated worker. A litigation protection plan is a proactive approach to heading off disgruntled employees.

During hard times, the stresses of work often follow us out of the office and many people turn their commutes into extended business hours. If you must talk while driving, S.S. Nesbitt encourages you to consider using hands-free cell phones to keep your distractions to a minimum. Your safety is our priority.

Contact your local S.S. Nesbitt agent for more information on the policies outlined above, or to notify us of any changes or additions needed to existing policies.  

Sincere regards,
Steve Nesbitt
