Common Questions
Most small businesses start with $1M/$2M (per occurrence/aggregate). Higher-risk businesses or those with larger contracts often need more. We'll match your limits to your actual exposures.
The state doesn't mandate it for most businesses, but landlords, clients, and licensing boards commonly require it. Contractors and client-facing businesses almost always need it.
A Business Owner's Policy (BOP) bundles GL with commercial property — usually at a lower price than buying each separately. Standalone GL makes sense for businesses without significant property to insure.
Yes. We handle COI requests quickly — typically same day — and can add additional insureds as required by your clients or contracts.
