FAQ

Common questions

Do I need both General Liability and a BOP?
Usually not both separately — a BOP already bundles General Liability with commercial property coverage, often at a better combined rate. If you don't own or lease a dedicated space, standalone GL alone may be enough.
In California, nearly every business with even one employee is required to carry workers' compensation insurance, with very few exceptions. We can confirm exactly where your business stands.
General Liability covers physical injury or property damage. E&O (Professional Liability) covers financial harm caused by a mistake, missed deadline, or bad advice — the kind of claim GL doesn't touch.
