Entertainment Industry DI

Entertainment / Movie Star High Limit Disability Brochure from Petersen International Underwriters

 Traditional insurance carriers may refuse to insure those working in the Entertainment Industry as their incomes can fluctuate between jobs.

Pilot Loss of License

Pilot Loss of License

Pilot Loss of License High Limit Disability Brochure from Petersen International Underwriters

 Corporate and commercial pilots have always had a tough time securing proper insurance. In the past, the majority of insurance companies have told pilots that they are “uninsurable” because there are too many factors that could cause them to lose their medical certificate. Due to strict medical qualifications, many health issues that would allow employees in the traditional workplace to continue working would cost a pilot his or her license.

Income Protection Plans for Individuals & Professionals

Why Disability Insurance ?

Disability is a subject you may read about in the newspaper, but not think of as something that might actually happen to you. But the chances of becoming disabled are probably greater than you realize. Studies show that a 20-year-old worker has just over a 1-in-4 chance of becoming disabled before reaching retirement age.  Accidents are NOT usually the culprit. Back injuries, cancer, heart disease and other illnesses cause the majority of long-term absences and loss of income.


Consider this anecdote.  You do not hesitate to insure your home, car or boat (the "things" that we pay for and enjoy in life).  How do you think you possess these items in the first place?  You bought them!  You insure them because you don't want to lose them and will want to have them replaced if "lost".   So why wouldn't you insure the "ATM machine" ?  YOU are the ATM Machine... you make money to support your lifestyle and family needs.  IF and when, you become disabled and can't produce income... the house of cards collapses!  This is why income replacement insurance (aka Disability Insurance) is just, if not more, important than Life Insurance.   


Life insurance pays someone else like a spouse should the insured person die (covering the deceased loss of income).  Sometimes you'll here a long term and total disability referred to as the "living death" .  This is so true because not only can't you work to bring in income for your family, your family and spouse must continue to expend money to take care of you, pay the bills, mortgage, boat, car, etc.  It's a terrible situation to be in, especially for your family that is depending on the uninterrupted flow of income.  


While we spend a great deal of time working to succeed in our jobs and careers, few of us think about ensuring that we have a safety net to fall back on should we become disabled.  At GRB we encourage our clients to reach out and let our team discuss a good income replacement strategy so you don't fall prey to the "living death" and it's unsavory complications on your and your families lives.

What is "Total Disability" ?

Our definition of total disability is a true “own occupation” definition. Total disability means that solely due to sickness or an injury, you are not able to perform the substantial and material duties of your occupation, even if you are at work in another occupation. Your occupation means the occupation (or occupations, if more than one) in which you are gainfully employed for the majority of the time during the 12 months prior to the time you become disabled. If you have limited your occupation to the performance of the substantial and material duties of a single specialty, we will deem that specialty to be your occupation provided that your industry widely recognizes that occupation as a specialty. Our definition of disability has purposefully been designed to allow an individual who is receiving disability benefits to continue to collect benefits and simultaneously be employed in another occupation. For example, a surgeon who is no longer able to perform surgery and is deemed to be disabled, may receive benefits while continuing to work as a professor of medicine.
