Dishonesty & Probate
We also write a wide variety of fiduciary (probate) bonds to those
who are required by law to distribute (administrator) or preserve (guardian)
property or other assets held in trust. These individuals are required
to post a bond guaranteeing the faithful performance of court-imposed
obligations. Bonds may also be required for various types of civil proceedings.

Anyone with a qualified pension must have a ERISA Bond to protect the
