General Liability
General liability insurance (GL) is coverage that can protect you from a variety of claims including bodily injury, property damage, personal injury and others that can arise from your business operations.
General Liability
General liability insurance is often combined with property insurance in a Business Owners Policy (BOP), but it’s also available to many contractors and business owners as a stand-alone coverage.
As a contractor or small business owner, you need some form of business liability insurance to safeguard your livelihood. A single accident could result in a lawsuit that you might not be able to handle. A great way to protect against this is to make sure you have liability coverage that matches your level of exposure.
​
The cost of general liability insurance is impacted by many factors:
-
Your business type
-
Your location
-
The level of risk your company is exposed to
-
The number of employees you have
