FAQs – What Woodstock Business Owners Ask About General Liability
Straightforward Answers From Local Advisors
Is general liability insurance required by law?
Not always — but many leases and contracts require it. It’s a must-have for risk protection.
How much coverage do I need?
We’ll help assess your risk, industry requirements, and budget to recommend appropriate limits.
What if I work from home?
You may still need coverage — especially if clients visit your home or you perform services offsite.
Can general liability cover my employees?
No — for employee injuries, you’ll need workers’ compensation. We’ll help you combine both.
Is this the same as professional liability?
No — general liability covers physical risks, not advice or service-based errors. Ask about bundling both.
Is loss of rent included automatically?
Not always — we’ll review your options and make sure your income is covered.
