General Liability Insurance
General Liability Insurance Information
General liability insurance can be a line of coverage for common risks a business can see such as customer injury, property damage and advertising injury. Without coverage, it’s easy to incur high costs from lawsuits resulting from these listed incidents. Even if this coverage isn’t required for you as a small business owner in your state, some client contracts may require it. Regardless, it’s crucial to consider coverage to keep you and others financially safe. Our agents at DRD Insurance Agency can help you get started with a policy.
