DJ Insurance - Group Liability & Property

Please note:  Access to our excellent group pricing for disc jockey insurance is just one of many benefits of USDJA membership. Becoming a USDJA member does not include or guarantee insurance coverage. See steps below to obtain a quote and purchase your policy.  Contact our insurance broker directly if your net DJ sales are greater than $250k, or if you use production equipment.

New DJs and entertainment companies (and those that were not insurance customers last year) should contact our broker Dale Wittick of PEEP Insurance at (215) 733-7467 before joining USDJA to ensure you qualify for coverage.

WHY DO I NEED DJ INSURANCE?  Imagine what would happen if you woke up tomorrow and you didn't have your DJ equipment due to theft or fire.  Imagine the impact of a $500,000 or $1,000,000 lawsuit against you, a subcontractor, or other representative of your business.  Without insurance, your world could be turned upside down; possibly dealing a huge financial blow to you, your family, and your business.  At USDJA, our members can rest easier at night, knowing that when they obtain insurance through our group insurance benefit, they will be covered for unforeseen losses (subject to policy terms and limits, or course).  Our insurance benefit is backed by the Philadelphia Insurance Companies, an A++ rated carrier, and is serviced by the best broker in the business, Dale Wittick, Jr., CPCU.  Dale is the only CPCU (Chartered Property Casualty Underwriter) that has specialized in providing insurance for the DJ industry. In addition, Dale has appeared at more national DJ trade shows, conventions, and educational seminars for DJs and entertainers than any other insurance broker or representative.

DID YOU KNOW that subcontractors do not have coverage under your insurance policy?  All of your subcontractors need their own insurance policy.  If a negligent act by a subcontractor at one of your events results in a lawsuit against your business, your business will be covered up to your policy limits, but your subcontractor will not be covered.  As a business owner that relies on the availability, professionalism, and equipment that your contractors provide, you should ensure through a subcontractor agreement and verification of their policy certificate, that they are properly covered.
