Attorney Direct Program

Attorney Direct is a unique program developed by Great American Insurance Company that allows selected law offices to submit their Court bond requests via our online portal and be able to print and execute the bonds in their office. The law office works with a selected GAIC expert surety agent.

Upon receipt of the submission from the law office, the bond may be approved based on the amount and submission information immediately. If more underwriting is needed, the law firm is notified by their agent what information is needed to get the bond approved for their issuance.

An invoice is generated along with the bond documents so that client billing is not delayed. We offer competitive rates based on risk.
