FAQs for Newfoundland Commercial General Liability Insurance
Oftentimes, commercial general liability insurance is abbreviated to “CGL.” CGL in Newfoundland is a standard form of insurance that business owners can purchase, and it is designed to help cover legal expenses if you are ever sued for negligence resulting in property damage or bodily injury. Still unsure? That’s okay – our Bullfrog Insurance experts are here to clear things up with you, whether that’s over the phone or in our diligently answered FAQs listed below for your convenience.
What does commercial general liability insurance cover in Newfoundland?
Commercial general liability insurance is designed to cover legal expenses in the event you are ever sued for negligence, resulting in bodily injury or property damage. Bodily injury is defined as anyone’s physical injury resulting from negligent acts (or negligent acts your business has been accused of). This can occur on the premises of your physical business, on public property or on a client’s site. Property damage is defined as physical damage to a third-party’s property. A “negligent act” may be coined as any instance where you failed to or were perceived to fail to exercise appropriate care in certain circumstances. Whether you were negligent or not, you can still be sued. Commercial general liability insurance in Newfoundland may then kick in to cover your legal expenses such as judgement awards, medical payments, settlements and legal defence costs.
What is excluded by my commercial general liability insurance in Newfoundland?
Despite being a base comprehensive policy that nearly every business requires, commercial general liability insurance may not cover some or all the following list:
- Physical damage to your company’s property
- Employee injury
- Liability claims besides property damage/bodily injury resulting from negligence
- Damages/injuries caused by operating a vehicle
- Injuries/damages caused by carrying out a professional service/advice
- Financial losses resulting from your service or advice
Your policy documents will define clearly what exclusions your commercial general liability insurance in Newfoundland will have. It’s important that you familiarize yourself with them or go over them in further detail with the help of your friendly Bullfrog Insurance brokers.
How much commercial general liability insurance in Newfoundland do I need?
That all depends. How much coverage your business may need depends on its risk factor, your budget, as well as a few other factors. Bullfrog Insurance offers a few levels of coverage to choose from:
- $2 million
- $3 million
- $4 million
- $5 million
This is essentially your “policy limit.” This is the maximum amount you can receive to reimburse you for claims in a policy term – usually a year – and may be spread throughout multiple claims. To determine your coverage needs, it is helpful to ask yourself these questions:
- What is the average cost of lawsuits in your industry?
- How often does your industry face lawsuits?
- Where is your business physically located?
- What can your business afford to pay for its premiums?
- Are you required to carry a base amount of commercial general liability per your contract terms
- What could cause injury during your business operations?
- How many employees does your business have?
Lawsuits can be expensive, even resulting from the smallest of incidents. It is recommended that you go above the base level of recommended coverage or work with a broker to determine your overall limits.

Due to a client’s request, and for the first time, I needed Commercial General Liability insurance, but I had no clue where to start. I Googled “CGL” and up came Bullfrog Insurance. Even though my needs were relatively small, due to the client needs, they had to be very specific. Every question I asked was answered by the Bullfrog insurance representative, Raman, who was very helpful. And then when I realized I needed more coverage, she didn’t flinch and let me know she’d get back to me right away. I got great coverage and all of it was done via email. Now I’ll know who to turn to for other small business insurance needs.
