Casualty / General Liability
General Liability Insurance in Texas That Covers What Standard Policies Often Miss.
Every business with customers, visitors, tenants, or third-party contractors carries liability exposure. When a claim is made, the cost is not just the settlement. It is legal defense, operational disruption, and reputational damage that follows. We structure GL coverage around how your business actually operates.

Where Liability Programs Get Mispriced
Casualty Placements That Map to How You Actually Operate.
GL is treated as a commodity by most brokers. Then a products claim hits an aggregate that was set ten years ago against an SIC code. We structure casualty the way the operations actually generate exposure.
Multi-location retail and hospitality
Per-location aggregates structured so a single claim does not eat the entire program's limits.
Manufacturing and distribution
Vendor coverage, products tail, and completed-ops endorsements placed against actual export and channel contracts.
Construction and energy services
Indemnity language reviewed against your actual subcontract language so the additional-insured endorsement does what the contract assumes.
Hospitality and F&B
Layered liquor with assault and battery broken out where late-night exposure justifies it.

Casualty programs matter most when the operation generates real third-party exposure: customers on premises, products in market, employees in the field.

Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions.
What is general liability insurance and what does it cover?
GL covers third-party claims for bodily injury, property damage, and personal or advertising injury arising from your business operations. It pays for legal defense, settlements, and judgments.
Is general liability required for businesses in Texas?
Texas does not mandate GL at the state level for most business types. However, most commercial contracts, lease agreements, and lender requirements specify minimum GL limits.
What is the difference between GL and professional liability?
GL covers physical injury and property damage. Professional liability covers claims from professional advice or services that cause financial harm to a client.
What are products and completed operations coverage?
This covers claims that arise after your product has been sold or your work has been completed. Critical for contractors, manufacturers, and distributors.
How much GL coverage does my business need?
Standard limits are typically one million per occurrence and two million aggregate, but the right amount depends on industry, contract requirements, and exposure.
What is liquor liability?
Liquor liability covers claims arising from incidents involving alcohol that your business serves or sells. Standard GL policies typically exclude alcohol-related claims.
Does GL cover employee injuries?
No. Employee injuries are covered under workers compensation. GL specifically covers third parties (customers, visitors, tenants, non-employees).
