Commercial Business Insurance in Dallas-Fort Worth & Greater North Texas
Why do I need General Liability Insurance?
In a perfect world, business owners would not have to worry about anything going wrong. In reality, however, we live in a world of uncertainties, one that is fraught with hazards, accidents and other unfortunate circumstances that can and do happen all the time. A customer getting injured within a shop's premises, an employee unintentionally damaging client property, or a small business needing insurance for encountering difficulties for allegedly failing to satisfactorily perform a service — these are just some of the risks that organizations face on a daily basis.
With the possibilities being so numerous, a commercial general liability insurance policy is something you truly cannot do without.
What does it cover?
Commercial General Liability in Texas protects your business against possible financial burdens should you be sued for damage or injury arising out of your business operations or the actions of your employees. These include:
- Bodily injuries and deaths
- Damage to other people's property
- Advertising and personal injury (e.g. slander, libel, copyright infringement, invasion of privacy, and so on)
Depending on the type of coverage you choose and on your policy limit, our commercial general liability insurance policies can help you cover the costs of your legal defense and medical fees if you are found liable to the claims. Finding the best policy provides you peace of mind.
How much does it cost?
There are many factors that go into calculating insurance cost. Size of company, experience in industry, claims history and nature of work are a few, but many more are applicable. As hard as it is to ballpark a rate without understanding these details, we can provide to you some average rates we’ve seen recently.
We recently insured a 1 owner, self employed startup in a low risk industry (Painters, handymen, HVAC, light remodeler, etc) for an annual premium of just $900. Another midsized business with multiple employees, medium risk (concrete, plumbers, general contractors, carpentry framers, medium risk industries) and a clear claims history was only $1,675 annually. We also insured a large established company who had many employees, high gross receipts and was engaged in higher risk business (roofers, large scale general contractors, welders, garage keepers) for about $4,500 annually.
Remember that rates vary and almost each client is different. So take this information as a rough guideline only.
