Protecting Your Business So You Can Focus on Growth

Owning a business in Pierce County comes with its own set of unique challenges and risks. Whether you run a retail shop in Puyallup or manage a contracting business in Tacoma, one accident can lead to devastating financial loss. At Dan Marek Insurance, we provide comprehensive Commercial General Liability (CGL) insurance to protect your livelihood.

What is Commercial General Liability (CGL) Insurance?

Commercial General Liability (CGL) insurance is a foundational business policy designed to protect your company from financial loss if you are found legally liable for property damage, bodily injury, or personal and advertising injury caused by your services, business operations, or employees.

What Does General Liability Insurance Cover?

To ensure your business is fully protected, a standard CGL policy typically covers the following key areas:

  • Bodily Injury: Covers medical expenses, loss of services, and legal fees if a customer or third party is injured on your premises (e.g., a slip-and-fall accident).
  • Property Damage: Pays for repairs or replacement if you or your employees damage a client’s or third-party’s property while conducting business.
  • Personal and Advertising Injury: Protects your business against claims of libel, slander, copyright infringement, or false advertising.
  • Legal Defense and Judgments: Covers attorney fees, court costs, and settlements if your business is sued, regardless of whether the lawsuit is meritless.
