General Liability

Product Liability

Property / Business Owners Policy (BOP)

Hypothetical claim scenarios

These are hypothetical examples only. Actual coverage depends on the policy form, exclusions, and carrier determination.

A customer is injured by a falling display. The general liability policy is intended to respond in the event of a covered claim.
A customer alleges a product caused injury. Product liability is generally intended to address allegations of this nature.

Frequently asked questions

Does this cover online sales?

Many policies include products sold online, but disclose all sales channels and shipping geographies on the application. Some carriers exclude or limit international shipments.

What about inventory and theft?

Theft and inventory shrinkage are typically addressed under a property or business owners policy (BOP), not general liability alone.
