What Is Commercial General Liability Insurance?

Commercial general liability insurance, often called general liability insurance or business liability insurance, is designed to help businesses address certain claims brought by others. These claims may involve injuries, damage to someone else’s property, products, completed work, advertising injury, or other liability matters described in the policy.

For example, a guest could fall at a restaurant, retail store, office, lodging property, or rental location. A contractor could damage a client’s home during a project. A product sold by a business could be connected to an injury claim. A business’s advertising or marketing activity could lead to certain personal or advertising injury allegations.

Legal defense costs, settlements, and judgments can create a financial burden for a business, even when safety practices and procedures are in place. General liability insurance may help pay certain defense costs or damages for qualifying claims, subject to the policy issued.

For Cashiers-area businesses, liability concerns may be shaped by seasonal visitors, mountain properties, construction activity, customer-facing operations, outdoor work, subcontractors, leased spaces, vacation rentals, community events, and the number of people who visit or interact with the business.

Types Of General Liability Insurance Protection

A general liability policy may include several types of protection for common business liability risks. The way a policy responds depends on the policy language, endorsements, exclusions, limits, deductibles, and the facts of the claim.

  • Bodily Injury - May help address certain costs related to injuries suffered by another person, including medical expenses, legal expenses, loss of services, or damages connected to an injury.
  • Property Damage - May help respond to certain claims involving physical damage to another person’s property or loss of use of that property.
  • Products-Completed Operations - May apply when an injury or damage results from something your company made, sold, installed, repaired, served, or completed as part of its work.
  • Products Liability - May help 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.
  • Personal And Advertising Injury - May apply to certain claims involving advertising injury, reputational harm, or similar allegations listed in the policy.
  • Medical Payments - May help pay certain medical expenses for injuries that happen on business premises or because of business operations, depending on the policy.
  • Legal Defense Costs - May help pay certain legal costs connected to a qualifying liability claim.
