Understanding Your Cover – Somersby

Public Liability Insurance Explained

Public liability insurance safeguards your business across Somersby when a client, contractor, or third party suffers personal injury or property damage as a result of your business operations, whether on-site, at a client’s location, or anywhere your work takes you.

Without the right public liability cover, your company could be directly liable for legal fees, compensation claims, and court costs that could devastate your business finances. Many industries also require proof of cover before you can sign contracts or open your doors.

Your public liability cover in Somersby can include:

  • Slip, trip and fall incidents at your premises or worksite
  • Damage to a client’s property caused by you or your team
  • Third-party injury claims arising from your operations
  • Legal defence costs and court representation
  • Damages and compensation settlements
  • Incidents at client sites or public locations


Without public liability cover in Somersby, your business may be personally liable for significant financial losses, with no safety net to fall back on.
