General Insurance from Hull Maynard Hersey

Operating any business involves a certain level of risk. And while you may take every possible precaution against accidents, there may still be physical injuries or property damage that occurs as a result of daily operations.

General liability insurance provides a safety net for those risks and ensures a quick recovery following any accidents or other damages.

What can commercial general liability insurance cover?

General liability insurance can come into play for a wide range of everyday scenarios faced by different businesses.

Here are just a few examples.

  • Your company is facing a lawsuit for false advertising claims.
  • A customer enters your store and slips on a freshly mopped floor. They are seeking compensation for medical costs resulting from their injuries.
  • You are a general contractor managing a crew remodeling a client’s home. A large appliance is dropped and broken. It must now be replaced at a cost to your business.

Like other types of insurance, general liability coverage will kick in after you have paid the deductible on your policy. In addition, any costs surpassing the coverage limits on your policy will remain your responsibility. Therefore, you may supplement general liability coverage with commercial property insurance or an umbrella insurance policy, depending on how your business interacts with the public.

What factors influence general liability insurance cost?

Your coverage costs will vary depending on several factors. If your business faces more potential risks, then your coverage will come at a higher cost. For example, a landscaping company would pay more for general liability insurance than a small retail store. In addition to the nature and location of your work, your general liability quote will account for the number of employees you have, the different cities or states where you do business, and safety training required for the employees of your business.
