Case Study

During a large excavation project at a construction site, one of Mark’s employees accidentally struck an underground utility line, causing significant damage and disrupting utility services in the area.

A claim was filed against Mark’s business to cover the costs of repairing the damaged utility line and compensating affected customers for the service disruption. Without insurance, Mark faced overwhelming financial liability.
