One slip-and-fall lawsuit can bankrupt a small business. General liability insurance is the foundation of every commercial insurance program — and we shop 30+ carriers to get you the best rate.

What Does General Liability Cover?

General liability (GL) insurance protects your business when someone claims you caused them harm. It's the most fundamental coverage any business needs.

01

Bodily Injury

Covers medical bills and legal costs if someone is injured on your premises or by your operations.

02

Property Damage

Pays for damage your business causes to someone else's property during your work.

03

Personal & Advertising Injury

Protects against claims of libel, slander, copyright infringement, and false advertising.

04

Medical Payments

Covers minor medical expenses for injuries on your property regardless of fault.

05

Products & Completed Operations

Covers claims arising from products you sell or work you've completed.

06

Legal Defense Costs

Pays attorney fees, court costs, and settlements — even for frivolous lawsuits.

Who Needs General Liability?

Every business that interacts with customers, vendors, or the public needs GL coverage. If someone can walk into your space or you go to theirs — you need this policy.

  • Contractors & construction companies
  • Restaurants & retail stores
  • Professional service firms
  • Landscapers & cleaning companies
  • Any business with a physical location
  • Anyone who signs contracts requiring proof of insurance

General Liability in Utah

Utah doesn't legally require GL insurance for most businesses, but practically speaking, you can't operate without it. Most commercial leases require it. General contractors require it from subcontractors. Many clients and vendors won't work with you without a certificate of insurance. Typical GL policies in Utah start around $400–$800/year for low-risk businesses and $1,200–$3,000+ for contractors and higher-risk operations.

Common Questions

Most small businesses pay between $400–$1,500/year. Contractors and higher-risk businesses may pay $1,500–$5,000+. Your rate depends on industry, revenue, claims history, and coverage limits.

GL covers bodily injury and property damage. Professional liability (E&O) covers mistakes in your professional services or advice. Many businesses need both.

If any client or vendor ever visits your home, or if you go to their location, yes. Your homeowners policy won't cover business-related liability claims.

We can often bind coverage the same day. Most GL quotes are turned around within hours.
