[CAUT] Insurance question

[tannertuner]

I would enquire of an accountant or attourney whether becoming an LLC would bypass this requirement. I haven't run into this issue in SC.

Steve,

In Montana we have the privilege of paying the state $125 every two years to NOT be covered by worker's comp.  Of course we have the option of buying coverage at a similar cost to what you mention, but also having no employees it is not worth it.  The University was happy either way, but I had to have proof that I was either covered... or not.  Maybe that would be an option for you?

Apparently, I can purchase the insurance for about $700 a year , but would not be able to file a claim if I needed too.  Do any of you in similar situations carry this insurance?
