Protection That Actually Works For Your Business and Your Peace of Mind
Real coverage for real businesses. We take time to understand what keeps you up at night, then build protection that lets you sleep better.
What Is General Liability Insurance?
General liability insurance acts as your business’s primary defense against third-party lawsuits and claims. When someone is injured on your property, alleges damage to their property, or claims your business practices caused them harm, this coverage protects your financial interests. It handles legal defense costs, settlements, and court judgments so these situations don’t threaten your business’s survival.
The reality is that businesses face increasing litigation risks in today’s environment. Even well-managed companies with strong safety practices can face unexpected claims. Defending yourself against these allegations – regardless of their merit – typically requires significant legal investment.
Why It Matters to Your Business
The right coverage protects your business from accidents, injuries, and claims that could threaten your operations or reputation.
Lawsuit Protection
Without general liability coverage, a single incident can expose your business to significant financial risk. A customer injury, property damage claim, or allegation of business misconduct can result in costly legal proceedings. Even defending against unfounded claims requires substantial legal investment.
Financial Protection
Liability settlements and judgments can reach substantial amounts, potentially threatening your business's financial foundation. Comprehensive coverage ensures these costs don't come directly from your operating capital or business assets.
Business Requirements
Most commercial relationships require proof of liability insurance. Landlords, clients, vendors, and contractors typically mandate coverage before agreements can proceed. This protection demonstrates business credibility and enables growth opportunities.
Operational Confidence
Proper liability coverage allows you to focus on business growth and operations without constant concern about potential legal exposures. It provides the foundation for taking calculated business risks.

Ready to Protect Your Business From Liability Claims?
Don’t wait for an incident to happen. Get the comprehensive general liability coverage your business needs to operate with confidence and peace of mind.
General liability insurance covers third-party claims for bodily injury, property damage, and personal/advertising injury. It includes legal defense costs, settlements, and judgments. Coverage extends to incidents on your premises, damages caused by your operations, defective products, and completed work. It also covers medical payments for minor injuries and fire damage to rented premises.
While not legally mandated like workers’ compensation, general liability insurance is practically essential for most businesses. Many clients, vendors, landlords, and lenders require proof of coverage before doing business. It’s often contractually required and necessary for professional credibility and financial protection.
Premiums are based on your industry classification, business size, revenue, location, claims history, and specific operations. Factors include square footage of premises, number of employees, types of products or services, and risk exposures. Our risk assessment process helps identify opportunities to reduce premiums by improving safety programs and enhancing risk management.
We flip the traditional approach by conducting comprehensive liability assessments before quoting. This ensures you get coverage that actually fits your exposures, not just the cheapest option. Our Prevent365 process and ongoing support make us true risk management partners, focusing on preventing claims before they occur while optimizing your coverage and costs.
