Why do you need public liability insurance for businesses?

Public liability insurance for businesses provides comprehensive coverage for various risks associated with third-party incidents, including slip and fall injuries, medical payments, reputational harm, advertising injuries, legal fees, defense costs, and property damage. This type of coverage ensures that businesses can protect themselves against legal and financial liabilities and continue their operations without significant financial burdens.

Public Liability can help cover a wide range of risks.

Slip and Fall Injuries

Slip and fall injuries can occur when a customer or a visitor to a business’s premises slips, trips, or falls and suffers injuries. Public liability insurance coverage provides financial protection to businesses for any claims arising from such incidents. For example, if a customer slips and falls in a grocery store due to a wet floor and suffers injuries, public liability insurance coverage will cover the cost of any legal claims arising from the incident.
