Click to find the best general liability insurance from top carriers

Be ready to handle the legal and medical fallout if your business causes injury or damage to others.

General liability insurance covers third-party claims of bodily injury, property damage and personal and advertising injury. A third party” is anyone who isn’t your employee, and “claims” refers to any demands for compensation – including both medical expenses and costly lawsuits.

Example 1: You own a convenience store, and a shopper has a serious injury after slipping on a spilled slushy drink. (Bodily injury)
Example 2: You’re a contractor and accidentally trash expensive artwork in your client’s home through a power tool mishap. (Property damage)
Example 3: You create a brilliant marketing campaign, and another company claims you stole it from them. (Advertising injury)

Can your business afford a lawsuit or medical bill?

The cost of a lawsuit or medical bill can bankrupt a small or growing business. General liability insurance covers you if someone claims you've caused harm to them or damaged their property. In fact, you're protected across three different aspects of your business:

Continuing operations: That means the work you regularly do. Do you install computers? That’s a “continuing op”
Products and completed operations: The products you sell or jobs you’ve finished. The computer you left behind is a “completed op"
Personal and advertising injury: Words and images used to promote your business. If another company claims you stole their copyrighted slogan, that’s an “advertising injury”

We'll help you save on the right general liability coverage for your business by comparing quotes from top insurance companies – or add it to a money-saving Business Owner's Policy.

Your coverage begins before you're sued

If something happens that prompts a lawsuit, you’ll be covered starting on the date the occurrence took place. (Keep in mind your policy will have a payout limit per occurrence and a total payout per year.)

Fast facts about general liability:

If I'm doing work outside of my place of business, am I still covered?

Yes. You're covered while you're performing work for someone at their location – and even if things go wrong after your work there is completed.

I don't run a media company. Why should I worry about "advertising injury"?

Because of widespread digital access to just about everything, all types of businesses are more vulnerable than ever to claims of libel, slander, copyright infringement and more.

What happens if I'm sued for something ten months after it happened?

Your coverage starts on the date the occurrence took place no matter how long it takes someone to bring the lawsuit.
