For those of you who do have liability insurance

Where did you get it from--which company? How long does the process take--do you renew every year?

CM&F Group, renewed yearly.
Took about 2 weeks from time of application till I had my policy in my mailbox.

They have two levels of coverage, I'd have to go grab the application to tell you exactly the limits but one is for $65 a year 500K/1M I think, and the other is around $105 a year and is 1M/6M I believe.

Wow that was the fastest response I've ever gotten from a thread! Thanks so much. I guess I can just google them and find them? Did you just pay online?

I knew i would find a thread that spoke about insurance. I was wondering were in the literature does it say that it covers "from conception through postpartum period"? I have the application and read over the material and I was unable to find this. I am asking not only for myself but for other colleagues that have the same concern.

Peace

It's in my actual policy paperwork that was sent when I paid for my coverage.
