General Liability Insurance
Protect Your Operations from
Everyday Risks
General Liability insurance helps protect your business from third-party claims involving bodily injury, property damage, and personal or advertising injury. Whether your business is best served by a Business Owner’s Policy (BOP) or a standalone General Liability policy, Crest will help you build coverage tailored to your operations and risk profile.
Why an Independent Broker
General Liability policies aren’t one-size-fits-all.
As an independent insurance broker, Crest compares coverage options from a broad network of leading carriers to help you find a solution that’s tailored to your business, industry, and operational risks. Our advisors provide strategic guidance throughout the process, so you can make confident decisions about your coverage.
What General Liability Insurance Covers
A well-structured general liability policy protects your enterprise from the financial impact of everyday third-party claims. Most standard policies provide critical protection for liability arising out of:
- Premises and Operations: Covers third-party injury or property damage claims occurring on your business premises or during your daily operations.
- Fire Damage Liability: Protects your business against claims for accidental fire damage to spaces rented to or occupied by your business.
- Personal and Advertising Injury: Safeguards your brand’s reputation against offenses such as libel, slander, or copyright infringement.
- Medical Payments: Provides prompt coverage for medical expenses for non-employees injured at your location, regardless of legal fault.
- Products and Completed Operations: Defends your business against claims of bodily injury or property damage caused by goods sold or services completed.
