Commercial General Liability Insurance protects you and your employees from lawsuits involving covered events that occur on your premises, or arise from your operations or your sale of products.

CGL covers you and your partners, co-owners, or directors; your spouse; and your employees and volunteers. Other parties like real estate managers and legal representatives can also be covered by CGL.

CGL applies when a person insured under your policy is involved in a covered incident in the course of your company's operations. Covered incidents include accidents on your premises or at your worksite, damage resulting from your sale of products or your completed work off-premises, and personal or advertising injury arising out of your company's operations.

CGL does not cover damage to your property, premises you own, or injuries to your employees.

Personal and advertising injury involves damage arising from false arrest, detention, or imprisonment; wrongful eviction, entry, or invasion of privacy; slander or libel; oral or written violation of privacy; and the infringement of your advertisement on another's copyright, trade dress, or slogan.

We generally provide coverage limits of $1 million per occurrence and $2 million aggregate. Higher limits are available and will be considered upon request.
