If you are relying on your Business Owner’s Policy to pay for all expenses incurred from a claim or lawsuit filed against your company, you should reassess your coverage and consider investing in General Liability Insurance.
Your business qualifies for General Liability Insurance if it falls under the “standard market” category, which encompasses all non-hazardous occupations. Businesses with dangerous occupations, such as roofers, are sometimes required to purchase Excess Liability Insurance.
