Guard Your Momentum, Early in Practice

While most young attorneys don’t think about disability or life insurance early in their careers, this is actually the optimal time to put the right policies in place.

Why This Matters Now

  • Your income is rising, but so is your dependence on it.

  • Stress and burnout are real risks—mental health coverage matters.

  • Lock in affordable rates while you’re young and healthy.

🛡️ True Own-Occupation Disability Insurance

In the legal field, your ability to perform mental tasks—reading, analyzing, writing, arguing—is critical. A disabling illness or injury that impairs cognitive function or even causes fatigue can derail your career.

  • True own-occupation policies provide coverage even if you pivot to non-legal roles.

  • High stress and burnout mean protection is smart, not premature.

  • Add inflation protection and future purchase options.

🧭 Life Insurance

Many attorneys start families and accumulate assets quickly. Whether protecting loved ones or establishing a financial base for future goals, term life insurance is a flexible, affordable option.

  • What is True Own-Occupation Disability Insurance, and why is it important?
    True Own-Occupation Disability Insurance pays you benefits if you’re unable to perform the specific duties of your profession due to a covered disability. Even if you decide to work in another capacity during your disability, these policies continue to pay out, ensuring that high-income specialists—like doctors, dentists, and attorneys—maintain financial stability and peace of mind.
  • How does group disability insurance compare to an individual policy?
    Group disability coverage is typically offered through an employer or professional association. While convenient, these policies may have limitations—like lower benefit caps or definitions of disability that aren’t own-occupation. Individual coverage is often more comprehensive and customizable, but usually comes with higher premiums.
  • What is partial or residual disability coverage?
    Some policies offer a partial or residual rider that pays benefits if you can still work but at a reduced capacity or income. This can be crucial for professionals recovering from an injury or illness who are able to work part-time but have lost some of their earning potential.
  • When should I review or update my life insurance policy?
    Major life events—like getting married, having children, buying a house, or starting a business—often warrant revisiting your coverage. It’s also a good idea to review your policy at least every few years, even without a major event, to ensure it still meets your evolving needs.
  • How are premiums determined for life insurance?
    Premiums depend on several factors, including your age, health history, occupation, lifestyle habits (such as smoking), and the type of policy you choose. Each carrier has its own underwriting guidelines, which is why an impartial broker can be helpful in shopping for the best rates.
  • Can I convert my term life policy to permanent life insurance?
    Many term policies include a conversion option, which allows you to transition to a permanent policy without undergoing additional medical underwriting. This is especially beneficial if your health changes but you still want ongoing coverage.
  • When should I consider Business Overhead Insurance?
    If you own or run a practice, business overhead insurance covers ongoing expenses (rent, payroll, etc.) when you’re temporarily unable to work. It keeps your practice financially stable during your recovery.
  • Why is Malpractice Insurance essential for physicians and dentists?
    Malpractice insurance covers legal expenses and potential settlements arising from professional liability claims, helping protect both your personal assets and professional reputation.
