General liability insurance (GL), sometimes called commercial general liability insurance, protects your company from risks you face every day-things like damage to the property of others, bodily injury to customers, product liability, libel, and copyright infringement-and claims that may be filed against your company as a result.
Without general liability insurance, your company can suffer serious financial damage from allegations, liability, and lawsuits. Plus, small business liability insurance may be required by law, by your clients, or in a lease.
In business as in life, accidents happen. Commercial general liability insurance from biBERK is important because it keeps incidents from creating financial hardship by covering costs associated with:

promoting your products or services
It's important to note that commercial general liability insurance
does not cover things like damage to your business property, auto
accidents in company-owned vehicles caused by you or your employees when
traveling for work, personal injuries to your employees, and fraudulent
or intentional acts.
Our insurance experts can talk with you about exclusions and other types of coverage you may want to consider.

deductibles (the amount you pay for a covered claim before your
insurance plan starts to pay)-affect your rate as well.
