Excess Liability Insurance
For any business that could be considered as being at increased risk of paying substantial damages or being regularly subject to litigation, will benefit from the purchase of Excess Liability Insurance. This type of policy provides a top up to primary (base layer) liability policies, or other underlying excess layers. Where an ordinary insurance policy won’t grant you sufficient cover to meet the potential liability you could be exposed to, you need the additional benefit provided by excess liability insurance.
If you feel your business may be included in a category where Excess Liability could apply, talk to Maher & Richardson and get the best advice. Call Barry on (01) 2804626/7 or email him using our contact form.
