Covering you for the unexpected

Whether it’s a slip-and-fall incident at your business location, damage caused by your team, or even an advertising-related claim, general liability coverage provides a financial safety net.

This insurance isn’t just a good idea—it’s often required by contracts and clients to prove you’re protected against the unexpected. For those seeking truck insurance in California, general liability is a core part of any robust coverage strategy, offering essential protection against the diverse liability risks trucking companies face.
