Protection from legal liability when a third party is hurt or their property is damaged

Commercial general liability insurance quotes can be issued as monoline or as part of the business owner’s policy package.

It provides an insured protection for legal liability that arises from injuries or damages sustained by a third party. The public commonly calls this “trip and fall” insurance, which is clearly slang.
