Frequently Asked Questions
Is business liability insurance required?
Not always. While it’s not legally required in every state, many clients, landlords, and lenders will require proof of coverage before signing contracts. Having liability insurance also protects you from unexpected lawsuits that could otherwise bankrupt your business.
What’s the difference between general liability and professional liability?
General liability covers physical risks like property damage or bodily injury. Professional liability (also called errors & omissions) covers financial losses caused by mistakes, negligence, or failure to deliver services as promised. Many businesses benefit from carrying both.
How much liability insurance does my business need?
Coverage needs vary depending on your industry, size, and exposure. A small retail shop may need $1M in coverage, while contractors or manufacturers may need higher limits. Chris will walk you through liability limit recommendations tailored to your business.
Does liability insurance cover employee injuries?
No. Employee injuries are covered under workers’ compensation insurance. Business liability insurance is designed to cover third-party claims — customers, vendors, and the general public.
