Protect Your Income with a Plan That Fits
Protect your income, your business, and your lifestyle with the right disability insurance strategy. We’ll guide you through the best options—without pressure, upsells, or confusing terms.
Disability Insurance Coverage Options
Choose the Right Coverage for Your Life and Work
Disability insurance isn’t just one thing—it’s a toolkit. Whether you’re recovering short-term, facing a longer road back, or protecting a highly specialized career, the right type of coverage makes all the difference. We’ll help you build a plan that fits your real risks and real life.
Short-Term Disability
If you’re recovering from surgery, illness, or a short-term injury, this coverage replaces a portion of your income—typically for 3 to 6 months. It helps you cover bills and living costs while you get back on your feet.
- Replaces lost income
- Helps cover everyday expenses during recovery
- Ideal for contractors & self-employed professionals
Long-Term Disability
This coverage kicks in after short-term benefits run out and can last for years—or even until retirement. It’s your financial foundation when a serious illness or injury prevents you from working long term.
- Covers 60–85% of your income
- Protects your lifestyle and long-term plans
- Critical for high earners & professionals
Partial Disability
Partial disability benefits support you when you can work in some capacity but not full-time. It’s perfect for a gradual return to work or for conditions that limit your ability to perform your usual hours or tasks.
- Offers flexibility during recovery
- Supports reduced work schedules
- Helps prevent relapse or burnout
Own Occupation Coverage
Own occupation coverage pays if you can’t do the specific job you trained for, even if you’re well enough to do something else. It’s the gold standard for doctors, lawyers, and other skilled professionals.
- Protects your specific role and skillset
- Doesn’t force you into a lower-paying job
- Ideal for professionals in high-responsibility roles
Your Financial Lifeline
How Disability Insurance Actually Works
If you’re unable to do your job due to illness or injury, disability insurance steps in to keep your income flowing. These policies replace a portion of your pay—usually tax-free—so you can stay financially stable even if you’re off work for months or years. Whether you’re recovering short-term or navigating long-term challenges, the right plan ensures you can:
Pay your bills and maintain your lifestyle
Focus on recovery, not financial stress
Keep up with obligations like rent, mortgage, tuition, or debt
Avoid draining your savings, retirement accounts, or business cash flow

You Work for Yourself. We Work for You.
