Best Answer

This depends on your business classification and your local business statutes. If you determine you do need to be bonded, contact your local insurance agent and buy an insurance bond. The type of bond will depend on your business classification. Most likely what you actually need is for your business to be " Insured ". In other words. Commercial General liability. Many if not most Bond Issuers will not issue you a bond if you do not carry appropriate Insurance for your business venture. being Bonded is not the same as being Insured.

Do you need a lawyer to be bonded?

No, you do not need a lawyer to become bonded, at least not in Ohio.

Things could have changed in that amount of time, so I checked online; there are companies that do that for you, one of them being State Farm (I am not an agent for any insurance company; just a retired grandma).
