Understanding Your Cover – Hollywell

What is Public Liability Cover?

Public liability cover safeguards your business throughout Hollywell when a supplier, visitor, or member of the public experiences property damage or bodily injury as a result of your business activities, whether on-site, at a client’s location, or anywhere your work takes you.

Without public liability insurance, your Hollywell business could be personally liable for defence costs, damages, and related expenses that can easily reach six figures. Many industries also require proof of cover before you can sign contracts or open your doors.

A public liability policy in Hollywell generally protects you against:

  • Slip and fall accidents on your property or a client’s site
  • Client property damage resulting from your business activities
  • Bodily injury claims arising from your operations
  • Defence costs and legal representation
  • Compensation payouts ordered by a court
  • Offsite incidents while working at client premises or public locations


Without public liability insurance for your Hollywell business, your business may be exposed for devastating financial consequences, with no safety net to fall back on.
