Testimonials
I am a huge fan of BCU. I know the founders well, the B, C, and U, and better yet, they know me well. I wouldn't think of doing business with anyone else.

I have been a client of BCU Risk Advisors for the last 10 years. I have found them to be not only extremely responsive but even more importantly genuinely concerned about my welfare and extremely proactive. I have recommended several clients to BCU and all have been extremely pleased. I recommend BCU without any qualification or hesitation!

For families with considerable assets, managing risk is essential and requires a broad knowledge of many exposures stemming from assets and life style. In BCU, we have a true partner who know each of our needs extensively. The numerous instruments BCU has provided have helped us accomplish our many family goals and the execution has been flawless.

I have worked with BCU for years on mutual clients. BCU is by far one of the most prestigious insurance brokerage companies we have worked with in my many years in business. The one thing I really like and enjoy working with BCU is that they treat their clients as family, as well as us.

Core Coverages That Protect Your Operations
Commercial Property Insurance
If a hurricane, fire, or water event damages your building or business personal property, recovery depends on how well your limits and deductibles were structured. We compare multiple markets to secure property coverage built for Florida exposure, not generic templates.
General Liability Insurance
Contractors, trades, and service providers often need proof of coverage before stepping on a job site. We align general liability policies with real contract requirements so you’re less likely to face rejected certificates or coverage gaps.
Business Owners Policy (BOP)
Small business insurance in Florida often works best when property and liability are bundled correctly. We help you determine whether a BOP structure fits your risk profile and growth plans.
Commercial Auto Insurance
If vehicles are titled to your business or used by employees, personal auto policies usually aren’t enough. We structure commercial auto coverage to reflect how your vehicles are actually used day to day.
Flood Insurance
Standard commercial property policies typically exclude flood damage. We review NFIP and private market options so your building and contents are properly protected in Florida’s flood-prone regions.

Your Commercial Insurance Questions, Answered
What commercial insurance does my Florida business need?
It depends on your operations, contracts, property exposure, and whether you use vehicles or employees. Most businesses carry general liability, property, and sometimes commercial auto, but the right structure varies by industry and risk.
Do I need business insurance to start a business in Florida?
While not every policy is legally required, many landlords, lenders, and clients require proof of coverage before you can operate or sign agreements. Having the right policies in place protects both your revenue and your reputation.
Can an agent help me bundle property and liability?
Yes. Many small businesses benefit from a Business Owners Policy that combines property and liability in one structure, when appropriate for the risk.
What if standard carriers decline my risk?
Some Florida risks are more complex due to property age, claims history, or storm exposure. Access to surplus lines brokers creates additional placement paths when traditional markets cannot offer terms.
Is this only for large companies?
No. We support small business insurance Florida owners rely on, including contractors, trades, professional services, condominium associations, and property managers.
