What people ask about business insurance cost

How much does a $1,000,000 liability insurance policy cost?

A $1 million general liability policy for a small business runs $400 to $1,500 per year, about $40 to $130 per month. The range is wide because underwriters care a lot about what you do. A consultant and a roofer are not the same risk. Get quotes from at least three carriers or work with a licensed commercial broker to find an accurate rate for your business.

Do I need business insurance if I have an LLC?

Yes. An LLC limits your personal liability for business debts, but it does not stop someone from suing your business for a slip-and-fall or a damaged property. General liability covers third-party injury and property damage claims. You may also need professional liability, commercial auto, or workers comp depending on your work. Many clients and landlords require proof of insurance before signing anything. A licensed commercial agent can sort out which policies your LLC actually needs.

How much does $20 million public liability insurance cost?

A $20 million GL policy is typically a $1 million primary policy with a $19 million umbrella stacked on top. The umbrella layer usually adds $1,000 to $3,000 per year for most small businesses. That number climbs quickly for high-risk industries or larger revenues. A licensed commercial broker can combine both layers into a single quote.

How much does a $1,000,000 term life insurance policy cost?

A $1 million 20-year term policy for a healthy 35-year-old runs about $40 to $60 per month. That rate climbs with age and any health conditions, and it climbs fast after 50. Note that this is personal life insurance, separate from business coverage, though owners sometimes use it for key-person or buy-sell arrangements. Compare at least three carriers before you buy.
