Re: "bonded and insured"

You get bonded and insured as a consultant, regardless of the specialty.
Contact The Hartford insurance company. That's who I get my bonding
insurance from as an independent consultant. I pay around $400 a year for
up to a million dollars coverage for "non-performance", malfeasance, etc.
