  • Risk assessment and management strategies

Insurance Brokerage Relationship
Role as Broker

McDonough Insurance Services acts as your insurance broker, not as the insurance company. We do not underwrite policies or make claim payment decisions. Our role is to assist you in identifying your insurance needs, obtaining quotes from various carriers, and facilitating the placement of coverage.

Policy Terms

The terms, conditions, exclusions, and limitations of your insurance coverage are determined solely by the insurance policy issued by the carrier. You are responsible for reviewing your policy documents carefully and understanding your coverage.

No Guarantee of Coverage

While we strive to find the best coverage for your needs, we cannot guarantee that any specific coverage will be available or that claims will be paid. Coverage availability and claim decisions are at the sole discretion of the insurance carriers.

Client Responsibilities

As our client, you agree to:

  • Provide accurate, complete, and truthful information regarding your business operations, risks, and insurance history
  • Promptly notify us of any changes to your business that may affect your insurance needs or coverage
  • Review all policy documents, quotes, and correspondence carefully
  • Pay all premiums and fees in a timely manner
  • Report claims to both the insurance carrier and our office promptly
  • Cooperate fully in the claims process and any investigations
  • Maintain required safety programs and comply with policy conditions

Failure to provide accurate information or comply with policy conditions may result in denial of claims or cancellation of coverage.

Quotes, Premiums, and Payments
  • Quote Validity: Insurance quotes are estimates based on information provided and are subject to change upon underwriting review and verification
  • Premium Determination: Final premiums are determined by the insurance carrier and may differ from initial quotes based on audits, endorsements, or updated information
  • Payment Terms: You are responsible for paying all premiums directly to the insurance carrier or as otherwise directed. Late payments may result in policy cancellation
  • Audits: Workers’ compensation and other policies may be subject to premium audits. Additional premium may be owed based on actual payroll or operations
  • Broker Compensation: We are compensated through commissions paid by insurance carriers. In some cases, we may charge fees for specific services, which will be disclosed in advance
Confidentiality

We treat all client information as confidential and will not disclose it to third parties except as necessary to provide our services, as required by law, or with your consent. Information may be shared with insurance carriers, underwriters, and service providers for the purpose of obtaining and servicing your insurance coverage. Please refer to our Privacy Policy for detailed information about how we collect, use, and protect your information.

  • Loss of profits, data, or business opportunities
  • Damages arising from insurance carrier decisions regarding coverage or claims
  • Errors or omissions in information provided by third parties
  • Any damages exceeding the fees paid to us for our services

Some jurisdictions do not allow limitations on liability, so these limitations may not apply to you.

Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless McDonough Insurance Services and its officers, directors, employees, agents, and successors from any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising from your breach of these Terms and Conditions, your use of our services, your provision of inaccurate information, or your violation of any law or rights of a third party.

Termination

Either party may terminate the broker-client relationship at any time by providing written notice. Upon termination, you remain responsible for any outstanding premiums, fees, or obligations. Termination of our relationship does not automatically cancel any insurance policies in force; you must contact the insurance carrier directly to cancel coverage.

Dispute Resolution

Any disputes arising out of or relating to these Terms and Conditions or our services shall first be attempted to be resolved through good-faith negotiation. If the dispute cannot be resolved through negotiation, it shall be submitted to binding arbitration in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association, to be held in Orange County, California. The decision of the arbitrator shall be final and binding.

Governing Law

These Terms and Conditions shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflict of law provisions.
