Can we compare an ordinary bar or tavern renewal?
Yes. Retail agents can send current GL/liquor terms and a short account summary for consideration. Include the risk state, effective date and an accurate description of the operation; availability depends on underwriting review.
What makes the first inquiry useful?
Identify the agency, operation type, annual receipts and alcohol-sales share, closing hours, entertainment and loss history. Explain what you want to improve in the renewal, including pricing or a particular policy provision.

General liability Premises and operations; compare the complete wording
Liquor liability Alcohol-service exposure; review A&B terms separately
A useful bar submission starts with the operation.
Licensing, sales mix and hours appear in insurer questionnaires, including this published Great American Ocean Marine example. It illustrates underwriting questions; it is not a Nomos application or a statement of current appetite. Use our submission checklist to prepare an inquiry, and our A&B comparison guide when reviewing the quotes.

Market fit reviewed in-house
We review each submission against current market appetite. Account-specific fit needs broker confirmation before underwriter handoff.
Every hour risks the client
Suitable accounts move to an underwriter after a licensed broker reviews the match and final file. Carrier response and quote timing depend on the account and market.
Just send the file
No 40-page form, no repeated questions. Send what you've got and we take it from there.
Bring the details.
Compare the terms.
01
Describe the operation
Send the legal entity and locations, receipts and sales mix, closing hours and entertainment. Explain any recent changes so the file describes the business operating today.
02
Include the renewal baseline
Share current premium and limits, available applications, policy forms and loss information. A short initial inquiry is welcome; a market may require further underwriting documents.
03
Compare the offered terms
Review GL and liquor together, including A&B wording, defense costs, deductibles and quoted fees. Confirm outstanding conditions before asking to proceed.
