Why do I need General Liability Insurance?

We understand the risks your company faces and the importance of knowing your business is properly protected. Having general liability insurance coverage protects your business against third-party claims of bodily injury or damage to someone else’s property. However, it does not protect your own personal property. This section explains what our business general liability insurance offers. You should consider general liability insurance coverage, also called commercial general liability insurance, if you or your employees:

• Interact with clients face to face – If you visit a client’s place of work, or clients visit yours
• Have access to a client’s equipment – For example, IT professionals should be covered against potential claims with IT business liability insurance
• Represent your client’s business
• Use third-party locations for any business related activities – For example, architects should make sure that they’re covered with architects business liability insurance
• Are required to have general liability insurance before entering into a contract
