DHH Insurance, LLC Announces Unique Insurance Programs for Interpreter Agencies and Freelance Interpreters
 
ROCHESTER, NY-DHH Insurance, LLC today is announcing the roll-out of a new type of insurance coverage designed especially for the sign language interpreting industry. The two different insurance products are geared towards agencies that provide such interpreting services, and also towards freelance interpreters.

These insurance packages are geared towards maximizing coverage for interpreting agencies and for freelance interpreters. Included in this coverage are professional liability, general liability, non-owned automobile coverage, business property, worker's compensation, and much more.

Gary Meyer, Co-Owner of DHH Insurance, LLC and Founder of the DeafQuote.com website, states, "The sign language interpreting industry has really grown over the past decade-first due to laws requiring equal access to communications for sign language users and now, more recently, due to the increased proliferation of video interpreting." Meyer, who is Deaf himself and a consumer of interpreting services, continues, "As more and more interpreter agencies and freelance interpreters find themselves providing services in a wider variety of situations, unfortunately the potential for liability has increased. In response, DHH Insurance, LLC is pleased to be able to offer agencies and individuals the peace of mind that comes with insurance coverage that is designed especially for their profession.

"DHH Insurance, LLC-with two offices in Rochester and Syracuse, NY-is a unique insurance agency as it is the only deaf-owned insurance agency to offer services for customers. The agency offers automobile, homeowner,
renter, deaf-owned business, interpreter agency, and non-profit insurance coverage plans. It is licensed to provide personal insurance coverage in 19 states and business insurance coverage in all 50 states. DHH Insurance, LLC's goal is to assist quality insurance companies in implementing Deaf-friendly communication protocols such as videophones and instant messaging so they can better serve the needs of the Deaf community.
