| Business owners face three exposures that could arise from a disability: 1. Keeping a roof over your head. Your ability to work and earn an income is your most valuable asset. . . 2. Keeping your business’ door open. If you became too sick or hurt to work, would your customers have to take their business elsewhere? 3. Keeping your business investment intact. If you or one of your partners or key employees suffered a disability and couldn’t return to work, what impact would that have on your business? These are just a few of the questions you might be forced to answer in the event of a disability – and we’re here to help...
