Frequently asked questions

My West Covina plaza wants a waiver of subrogation — normal?

Very common. We request matching endorsements so the certificate matches the lease before you open or renew.

We cook in a shared commissary — how do we insure that?

List every cooking location and who controls the premises. Shared kitchens without clarity are a top reason restaurant submissions bounce.
