We bring an independent approach to insuring your business.


Business Insurance

We want to be your trusted insurance advisor. Because we’re independent, we recommend the best insurance solutions from a wide range of top quality carriers. We find comprehensive coverage at competitive prices, and we tailor a high quality insurance package specific to your business needs.

Business Property and Liability

Business Property and Liability are often packaged together in a Business Owners Policy, also known as a “BOP.” Business Property insurance protects the assets of your business, such as your office space, property and equipment. Business Liability insurance protects you from claims that your business caused injury or property damage to someone else. Today, BOP policies are often more economical than separate policies and can be tailored to fit the unique needs of your business or industry.

Workers Comp

Most states require a business with one or more employees to have the protection of Workers Compensation insurance. Workers Comp provides benefits to employees that pay for the cost of treating work-related illness or injury, lost wages and vocational training. Most policies also include Employers Liability Coverage, which protects employers from lawsuits involving work-related accidents or diseases.

Professional Liability

Professional Liability Coverage, also called Malpractice Insurance or Errors and Omissions, protects you from claims brought by clients or patients. Dyste Williams has extensive experience with a broad range of professionals and professional business owners. We specialize in the insurance needs of medical, dental and oral surgery practices. We also serve many other professionals such as accountants, lawyers, architects and consultants.

New Business Owners

Starting a new business is a busy time filled with many decisions and expenses. Dyste Williams can simplify the process of obtaining necessary insurance coverage. We’ll meet with you to identify your needs, and then present you with your best choices. We’ll set up a comprehensive, customized insurance program that provides excellent coverage at a reasonable cost. We specialize in understanding the needs and concerns of small business owners.

Commercial Auto

Company-owned vehicles like cars, vans and trucks, as well as personal vehicles used for business need specific business coverage. For example, if your employees use their own vehicles to run errands for the business, we can help you obtain commercial auto coverage. Personal auto insurance policies are often not enough protection on vehicles used for business.

Umbrella

An Umbrella Policy protects your business from a catastrophic lawsuit by adding protection above and beyond what is provided by your core liability coverage.

Other Essential Coverage

Depending on the nature of your business, we may recommend additional insurance coverage. Contact us to learn more about the following:

  • Crime
  • Directors and Officers
  • Data Breach/Cyber
  • Employment Practices
  • Fiduciary Liability

TESTIMONIALS

Dr. Steven Veker | 44th Street Dental, Edina, MN

We are very happy with the service from Dyste Williams. Last year when we had an injury in our parking lot that resulted in a claim, Ted Dyste took care of everything. His response was immediate and comprehensive, and that meant a lot to us. When we have questions about Workers Comp or liability insurance for re-credentialing, Sandy Treptow or Ted get answers for us right away. Each year at renewal time Ted comes by complete with a new booklet and reviews all our coverage. We’ve been very happy with the choices and the numbers, he has definitely saved us money. We also really respect Dyste Williams’ commitment to the dental industry, they are very knowledgeable about dentistry and well-recognized in the dental community. Other insurance agents call us constantly to offer deals, but we have no reason to switch. Dyste Williams is excellent and we are very satisfied.
