What Our Clients Say
Founder Shield helped us through the process of determining what insurance policies we need and how much coverage we need. As a high-growth platform, that sort of expertise was invaluable.
I think Founder Shield is great! They are always willing to go the extra mile in helping my company understand the complex insurance requirements that our firm faces.
If you’re a new startup and need or want insurance, there is no better option. I must have called almost EVERY traditional insurance company and insurance broker before someone told me about Founder Shield. They understand novel/creative new business models and were the only company that “got it”.
