Please Note: Any review by McGriff, or its representatives, of third-party contracts is done so solely as an advocate for you in assessing your risk management program. We do not certify to the completeness nor adequacy of any third-party contract to which you are a part. Please consult with your attorney before making any changes to existing third party contracts you may have in place.
