Find surety bonding services for your situation from Nationwide
Nationwide has been committed to providing quality surety bonding services backed by our commitment to On Your Side® customer service for over 50 years. Our portfolio of surety bonds, including contract bonds, commercial bonds and court bonds, has the flexibility to meet your business needs.

Different than insurance, a surety bond is designed to guarantee a principal’s integrity and honesty, performance and financial responsibility, and compliance with a law or contract.

Contract surety bonds
If you’re a contractor and your next job requires you to secure a bid bond, performance bond, payment bond and/or maintenance bond, now is the time to get pre-qualified. Nationwide specializes in servicing small to medium-sized contractors. Our net worth underwriting philosophy is unique, emphasizing personal and business assets, credit history and your ability to complete projects. No contract surety bond is too small and no minimum premium is required.

Court surety bonds
If you’re involved in the court system as either a defendant, plaintiff or fiduciary, chances are good you’ll be required to obtain a court surety bond. As the name suggests, court bonds guarantee that a person or entity will faithfully perform the duties prescribed by law and will demonstrate financial responsibility for the benefit of another until the final outcome of a court’s decision. Commonly requested court surety bonds include appeal bonds and probate bonds.

Fidelity bonds
Although most businesses feel their assets are secure, employee theft can and does occur. Fidelity bonds protect against employee theft, whether from you or one of your customers.
