I absolutely loved working with Founder Shield. They explained all their answers to my questions when they easily could have YES or NO. Also, Shira was beyond helpful in getting me onboarded. Going with FS also saved me $1000/ yr.

Easy to work with, made multiple adjustments we asked for, the high-tech and online signatures is a huge time-saver, they can work with companies of ours in multiple states, and Wil was a great rep to work with!

Wil was able to quickly find me a better policy than the one our current insurance broker was offering, was great on following up with me to make sure things get done on time, and evaluated our policies and went over them with me in detail. Very happy with the support from FS so far and look forward to continuing to work with them!

We are a startup in Silicon Valley. I searched many insurance companies, couldn't find a policy that meets our needs. Fortunately I found Founder Shield, its products are exactly tailored to the needs of a startup. Founder Shield's online application system is very easy to use, its customer representatives are very professional, responsive, and act fast. I will definitely recommend to my friends who involve startups.

They found the insurance coverage I needed. Most other companies were unable to help.

Consistent rapid and concise customer service from both broker and support personnel. An evident ethos of “let’s make this easier”. I've managed the insurance function for various companies for over 30 years and this is the most cost and TIME effective approach I have encountered.

FounderShield was easy to work with. The people were all professional and responsive. The reason for four stars and not five is that we needed a specific Endorsement (a CG 20) required by our landlord (a government entity). After some back-and-forth, we were finally told that "CHUBB, does not produce the specific form the entity is requesting." We are still waiting for a response from our landlord (the City of San Francisco) on whether they will accept the alternate form that was provided. If not, then we are going to have to find other insurance.

I am no insurance expert. Founder's shield was helpful, amazingly responsive, did not mind as many questions as I could lob at them, and provided very clear proposals that were amazingly easy to execute. I'm a completely satisfied client!

Our agent (Wil) was readily available to answer any of our questions or concerns. He understood our needs and helped us navigate to the most suitable IP policy for us. He had the interests of his primary client- us - in mind, which lead us to secure IP policy through the FounderShield with peace of mind. Thanks!

I found Founder Shield very easy to work with and I preferred their portal over the lengthy and usually not completely organized method of giving verbal responses to an agent over the phone, half of which they either do not get right or need multiple repetitions to confirm.

When renewing a business insurance policy, rates came back higher than expected. I reached out to Founder Shield on a weekend, and a couple days late had new quotes that were substantially lower than our renewal quote. Plus the process was relatively painless even given the short notice. It was good to deal with insurance professionals.

Libby is by far the most attentive and responsive insurance agent I've ever had the pleasure to work with. As a business, it's important for us to give our clients the information they need in a timely manner, and working with a company like Founder Shield has been an integral part of our success in securing what we need within our tight Production Schedules. I'm so grateful we have such a great team on our side to help us with all our Insurance needs.
