Disability Insurance

To help protect our members from the potentially disastrous financial consequences of a disabling illness or injury, the State Bar of Michigan is making disability insurance plans available through MIS. Disability insurance can provide income to you if you are unable to work due to an accident, prolonged illness, or injury. Various benefit limits and waiting periods are available. This is one insurance product an independent practitioner cannot afford to go without.

You insure your medical expenses, your home, your cars, and your business property, but do you insure your income? After all, it’s your income that allows you to own all your assets. Without providing an income stream for yourself if you are unable to work due to illness or injury, all your other assets are at risk. We can help you find the disability income insurance that fits your needs and your budget. Choose from:

  • Long-term disability.
  • Business overhead insurance.

Life Insurance

Your life insurance gives your family choices by providing the benefits to help pay off debts, to help meet housing payments and ongoing living expenses, to help fund college educations for your children or grandchildren, and much, much more. Life insurance provides cash when it’s needed most. Member Insurance Solutions offers life insurance plans tailored to your needs. Choose from:

  • Permanent insurance.
  • Term insurance.
  • Long-term care...and more!
