Commercial insurance is a type of policy that was created to protect both the business and the business owner. Keeping this in mind, not all business owners are going to need a large commercial policy, but all can benefit from some sort of commercial policy. For those in the Catonsville, MD area, the agents with HBW Insurance Group can answer any questions you may have.
The first thing to consider when thinking about taking out a commercial policy is the size and scope of the business and how much you would be affected if it shut down or if a law suit was filed. If you simply sell things from your home from time to time and have no large inventory and have no real potential for a lawsuit against you or your business, you may not need a huge policy. If you have a large amount of inventory, a store front, and customers that come into that store front as well as employees that work for you, you certainly need a comprehensive policy.
Creating an LLC, or a limited liability corporation, will help to protect you from lawsuits but it does nothing if your place of business burns down and inventory is destroyed. A commercial policy is going to protect you from three things, lawsuits, destruction of property, and replacing items if there is any sort of disaster. Commercial policies are always a good idea even if your business is not all that large yet. For those larger, more established businesses, a good commercial policy is entirely necessary.
