Hear from Our Customers
You’re not wondering if you’re covered when something goes wrong. You know exactly what your policy includes because someone took the time to explain it in plain terms—not insurance jargon that requires a law degree to decode.
When your truck gets hit on the way to a job site, or a customer claims they were injured on your property, or a wildfire threatens your building, you’re not scrambling. You’re making one call to someone local who already knows your business and can walk you through next steps without transferring you three times.
Your rates don’t jump 40% at renewal without explanation. You’re not getting a cancellation notice after 15 years of loyalty because some algorithm decided your zip code is suddenly too risky. You have options—real ones—because we represent over 40 carriers, not just one corporate office that doesn’t care about Morristown businesses.
Premier Choice Insurance is a family-owned agency based in Arizona, serving business owners throughout Morristown and the entire Phoenix metro area. We’ve been here through the rate chaos, the non-renewals, and the “sorry, we can’t help you” conversations that bigger companies hand out like candy.
We represent more than 40 top-rated insurance carriers. That means when one company decides they don’t want to cover contractors anymore, or they’re pulling out of Arizona entirely, we’re not stuck. You’re not stuck. We compare your options, explain what’s actually different between policies, and help you make a decision based on real information.
Our team has earned over 930 five-star Google reviews, not because we’re the cheapest, but because we pick up the phone. We’re physically in our Mesa and Peoria offices. When your business changes or you have a claim, you’re talking to the same people who wrote your policy.
You reach out—by phone, email, or through our website. We ask about your business: what you do, how many employees you have, what vehicles or property you need to protect, and what’s keeping you up at night about your current coverage.
We pull quotes from multiple carriers. Not just one. We’re comparing general liability, commercial auto insurance, workers compensation insurance, commercial property coverage, and professional liability or errors and omissions insurance if your work requires it. You see the differences in coverage and cost, side by side.
We explain what you’re actually buying. If one policy is cheaper but excludes something important for your type of business, we tell you. If another carrier has a better reputation for handling claims in Arizona, that matters too. You decide what makes sense.
Once you choose a policy, we handle the paperwork and cancellation of your old coverage if needed. No fees for our service—you’re paying the same premium you’d pay going direct to the insurance company, but you get our experience and ongoing support included.

Arizona businesses deal with specific risks that don’t show up everywhere else. Extreme heat damages equipment and vehicles. Monsoon storms cause property damage and flooding. Wildfires threaten buildings and disrupt operations. Your commercial insurance needs to account for what actually happens here in Morristown and surrounding areas, not just generic scenarios.
General liability insurance covers customer injuries and property damage claims. If someone says they got hurt at your business or you damaged their property during a job, this is your first line of defense. Commercial auto or commercial vehicle insurance protects your trucks, vans, and work vehicles—whether you’re driving to job sites in Phoenix, Mesa, or Chandler, or making deliveries across the state.
Workers compensation insurance is required in Arizona if you have employees. It covers medical bills and lost wages if someone gets injured on the job. Commercial property insurance protects your building, equipment, and inventory from fire, theft, vandalism, and weather damage.
If you provide professional services or advice—consulting, accounting, real estate, IT, design—you likely need professional liability insurance or errors and omissions insurance (E&O insurance). This covers claims that you made a mistake or your advice caused financial harm. Trade insurance bundles coverage specifically for contractors, covering tools, liability, and the unique risks of construction work.
Most businesses need general liability as a baseline. It’s often required by contracts, leases, and clients before you can start work. If you have employees, workers compensation insurance isn’t optional in Arizona—it’s required by law the moment you hire your first person.
If you use vehicles for business—even occasionally—you need commercial auto insurance. Personal auto policies don’t cover business use, and driving without proper coverage can leave you personally liable for damages. If you own or lease a building, or have expensive equipment and inventory, commercial property insurance protects your physical assets.
Professional liability or E&O insurance becomes critical if your work involves advice, design, consulting, or professional services where a mistake could cost a client money. The specific combination depends on your industry, but these five categories cover the majority of business risks in Morristown and throughout Arizona.
You’re not imagining it, and you’re not alone. Arizona has seen significant rate increases across commercial insurance over the past few years, driven by several factors. Insurance companies have been pulling out of Arizona entirely or restricting what they’ll cover due to wildfire risk, extreme weather losses, and rising claim costs.
When carriers leave the market, fewer companies are competing for your business, which means higher rates for everyone left. Some insurers are also using updated risk models that penalize certain zip codes, industries, or business types—even if you’ve never filed a claim. If your business has grown, added locations, hired more employees, or changed what services you offer, that can trigger rate increases too.
The good news is that rates vary widely between carriers. One company might raise your premium 50% while another barely changes. That’s why working with an independent agency that represents multiple carriers matters—you’re not stuck with whatever one company decides to charge. We can shop your coverage across 40+ options and find better rates without sacrificing protection.
There’s no one-size-fits-all number because cost depends on what you do, how many employees you have, your claims history, and what coverage you need. A small office with two employees doing consulting work might pay $1,500-$3,000 per year for general liability and professional liability combined. A contractor with five employees, multiple trucks, and equipment could easily pay $15,000-$30,000 annually once you factor in general liability, commercial auto, workers comp, and tools coverage.
Your industry matters significantly. Higher-risk work like roofing, electrical, or plumbing costs more to insure than low-risk office work. Your location within Morristown and the surrounding Phoenix metro affects rates too—some areas have higher theft or weather risk. Claims history plays a role; if you’ve filed multiple claims recently, expect higher premiums.
The best way to know what you’ll actually pay is to get quotes based on your specific situation. We compare rates from over 40 carriers, so you’re seeing the realistic range for your business, not just one company’s price. We can also show you how different coverage limits and deductibles affect cost, so you can make trade-offs that make sense for your budget and risk tolerance.
They’re essentially the same thing—both terms refer to insurance that covers vehicles used for business purposes. The terminology varies by carrier and agent, but the coverage works the same way. If you use a truck, van, car, or specialty vehicle for work, you need commercial coverage instead of personal auto insurance.
Commercial auto insurance covers vehicles owned by your business or used regularly for business activities. This includes driving to job sites, making deliveries, transporting equipment or materials, or visiting clients. It provides liability coverage if you cause an accident, plus collision and comprehensive coverage for damage to your vehicle from accidents, theft, vandalism, or weather.
Personal auto policies specifically exclude business use. If you get in an accident while driving for work and you only have personal coverage, your claim will likely be denied. Even if you’re using your personal vehicle for business occasionally, you need to tell your insurance company and add business use coverage. For vehicles titled to your business or used primarily for work, a full commercial auto policy is the right move.
If your work involves giving advice, making recommendations, or delivering professional services where a mistake could cost someone money, yes—you need E&O insurance regardless of your size. Being small doesn’t protect you from lawsuits. In fact, one claim could put you out of business entirely if you don’t have coverage.
Errors and omissions insurance (also called professional liability insurance) covers claims that your work was inadequate, you made an error, you missed a deadline, or your advice caused financial harm. This applies to consultants, real estate agents, insurance agents, accountants, IT professionals, marketers, designers, engineers, and anyone selling expertise rather than physical products.
Even if you did nothing wrong, defending yourself against a claim costs tens of thousands in legal fees. E&O insurance covers your defense costs and any settlement or judgment if you lose. Many clients and contracts require proof of E&O coverage before they’ll work with you. It’s not about whether you think you’ll make a mistake—it’s about protecting yourself from claims, frivolous or legitimate, that could destroy what you’ve built.
Yes. Non-renewals and cancellations have become frustratingly common in Arizona, but they don’t mean you’re uninsurable. It usually means that specific carrier changed their appetite for your industry, location, or business type—not that you did anything wrong. Other carriers are still actively writing policies for businesses like yours.
When you work with an independent agency like us, a cancellation from one carrier doesn’t end the conversation. We represent over 40 insurance companies, and they all have different underwriting guidelines and risk appetites. One company might be pulling out of Morristown while another is actively looking for new business here.
We’ll ask about the cancellation reason, review your business details, and shop your coverage across our entire carrier network. In most cases, we can find replacement coverage quickly—often with better rates or terms than what you had before. The key is not waiting until the last minute. If you received a non-renewal notice, reach out immediately so we have time to compare options and get you covered before your current policy expires.
