How do I obtain a surety or fidelity bond (notary bond, construction bond, performance bond, etc.) for the type of work I want to perform?
Unfortunately, we cannot tell you which insurers write a specific type of bond nor which insurers will cover the risk you may represent. Surety and fidelity insurers can choose to not write or only a write a few of the types of bonds they are authorized to write. Also, Michigan law does not prohibit them from denying any applicant or risk they choose not to write. Try these methods in this order to obtain the coverage you need: 1) Call the Insurance Hotline at 800-777-8005. They try to match customers with the right coverage. 2) Call the business, general contractor, government agency, or county clerk you are required to file the bond with. Ask them for a list of three to five phone numbers of surety insurers that write bonds for businesses or occupations like yours. 3) Look up “Insurance” in your local yellow pages. Look for companies and agencies that advertise surety & fidelity coverage. Others may be authorized to write surety coverage, but you are more likely to find the product y
