Frequently Asked Questions

Surety Referral Partner FAQs

Does my client need to know exactly which bond they need?
No. If the client has a bond form, contract provision, licensing requirement, court document, notice or other paperwork from the entity requiring the bond, send that information with the referral.
What is the obligee?
The obligee is the party requiring the bond. Depending on the situation, this could be a government agency, municipality, court, utility company, project owner, general contractor or other organization.
Can I refer a client if I am not an insurance professional?
Yes. Referral partners may include attorneys, title professionals, contractors, consultants, accountants, real estate professionals, trucking professionals, notaries and other business advisors.
Will Lavon Insurance take over my client relationship?
Our role is to assist with the surety request for which the client was referred. We respect the professional relationship between the client and the referring advisor.
How quickly can a surety bond be issued?
Timing depends on the type of bond and the underwriting required. Some straightforward bonds can move quickly, while contract bonds and specialized bond requests may require additional financial or underwriting information.
What if the bond is not listed on this page?
Send us the requirement anyway. There are many different types of surety bonds, and the name used by an obligee may differ from the terminology used by the surety company.
Can clients apply for bonds online?
Many common surety bonds can be started through Lavon Insurance’s online surety marketplace. More complex requests may require additional underwriting.
