You’re on the right path to the insurance you need

If you are a resident’s association or associated management company responsible for a shared private road, driveway or access road, or you own an area of land accessible by the public such as communal gardens, you need to make sure you are protected for the possibility of claims being made against you for slips, trips, falls and damage to other people’s property, such as damage to their vehicle caused by an unrepaired pot-hole. For an additional premium cover can also be included for loss or damage to road surfaces, fences and gates and street furniture such as street lighting and signage.

Frequently asked questions

Why do I need Public Liability and Property Owners’ Liability insurance?

If you cause injury to another person or cause damage to their property, then they may make a claim against you for compensation. Public Liability insurance will cover you for any compensation award made against you plus the legal fees to defend you.

What is Employer’s Liability insurance and do I need it?

If you employ someone to work for you then by law, you must take out Employer’s Liability insurance. Failure to have adequate cover in force could result in your business being fined.
