What Is Commercial General Liability Insurance?

One of the most common exposures facing businesses is the risk of liability. If someone slips and falls at your business location, your company may face a claim. If a product your business sells causes injury, your company could be named in a lawsuit. If your business operations cause damage to another person’s property, the financial impact can be significant.

These are only a few examples of liability claims that can affect businesses of many sizes and industries. Legal expenses, settlements, and judgments can add up quickly, even for companies with safety practices in place.

Commercial general liability insurance can help respond to certain claims involving bodily injury, property damage, and related legal expenses, subject to the terms, limits, deductibles, endorsements, and exclusions of the policy. General liability insurance, sometimes called business liability insurance or commercial general liability insurance, may provide protection for your business against claims made by others.

Types of General Liability Coverage

A general liability insurance policy may include protection for several common business risks, depending on the policy terms, limits, and exclusions.

Bodily Injury - May help address costs related to injuries suffered by another person, including medical expenses, loss of services, or damages connected to an injury.
Property Damage - May help respond to claims involving physical damage to another person’s property or loss of use of that property.
Products-Completed Operations - May provide liability protection, including damages and legal expenses up to the policy limit, if an injury or damage results from something your company made, sold, installed, repaired, or completed as part of its work.
Products Liability - May help your company respond to lawsuits involving product-related injuries or damages.
Contractual Liability - May apply to certain liabilities your business assumes when entering into contracts, subject to policy terms and limitations.
Other Liability Protection May Include - Reasonable use of force, borrowed equipment, liquor liability, non-owned vehicles, fire, lightning or explosion damage, water damage liability, legal defense costs, medical payments, personal injury, advertising injury, and liability protection for certain business types.

For Beaufort business owners, general liability insurance can be an important part of a broader business insurance plan that may also include commercial property, commercial auto, workers’ compensation, professional liability, cyber liability, umbrella or excess liability, and other policies.
