About MLA Fishermen Services Corp.

Since 1977, our affiliate, MLA Non-Profit Boat Protection Coop, Ltd. (MLA NPBPC), has stood as a trusted partner to the commercial fishing industry, offering reliable commercial marine insurance tailored to the needs of working commercial fishermen. What began as a modest initiative has grown into a respected cooperative that provides affordable vessel coverage and efficient, responsive claims handling for commercial fishing professionals across the Northeastern United States and beyond.

At the heart of MLA NPBPC’s success is a deep understanding of the industry. Their experienced marine underwriters closely monitor loss trends, evolving regulations, and operational risks within the commercial fishing sector to ensure that policyholders receive competitive rates and comprehensive protection. This insight-driven approach allows them to adapt to changing conditions while always prioritizing the needs of their insured members.

MLA Fishermen Services Corp. was established to serve as the administrative liaison between commercial fishermen and the Bermuda-based cooperative, streamlining communication and making the commercial marine insurance process as seamless as possible. Our team is made up of fishermen, former captains, and experienced maritime professionals, which means we understand your challenges—because we’ve lived them too.

We know that accidents happen, and when they do, you need a team that will move quickly, communicate clearly, and fight for a fair resolution. That’s why we are committed to supporting you through every step of the claims process, from the moment of incident to the final settlement—with compassion, efficiency, and industry expertise.

When you choose MLA Fishermen Services Corp., you’re not just buying commercial marine insurance, you’re gaining a partner who respects your work, understands your lifestyle, and is deeply committed to keeping you and your vessel protected at sea.
