Northern California industries we serve
Home healthcare agencies (CDSS HCO and CDPH), general contractors and specialty trades, restaurants and food service, medical and dental practices, tech-services and consulting firms, and NEMT and non-owned auto exposures dominate our Northern California book. KTL places business owner policies, general liability, professional liability, workers' compensation, commercial auto, cyber, and umbrella programs across the region.
Wildfire, earthquake & DIC coverage
Property placements in the Wine Country, Sierra foothills, and East Bay hills frequently need a combination of admitted and E&S markets, and Northern California businesses regularly add difference-in-conditions coverage for earthquake and flood. KTL structures the whole property program so lender and lease requirements are met without over-paying.
AB 5 and California workers' compensation
California AB 5 essentially forces W-2 classification for most caregivers, home-service technicians, and gig-style trades. Workers' compensation is governed by the WCIRB with class codes that carry some of the highest rates in the country. KTL audits classification and payroll assignment on every Northern California placement.
