Protection from the numerous and sometimes complex liabilities that businesses face.
Our casualty insurance gives your company protection against a wide range of unwanted risks. We protect against injury to a third party caused by your business operations or products, and injury to your employees caused by an accident or disease. Casualty insurance is vital for handling accident-related losses – like employers’ liability – that can hamper your performance and growth.
Risks we cover
We can safeguard your operations against liabilities like these:
Bodily injury: A customer trips over a step in your retail store and injures themselves.
Personal and advertising injury: A competitor believes your most recent ad campaign infringes on their intellectual property.
Excess liability: A customer is awarded a large judgement in a lawsuit against you, and the damages you must pay go beyond the limits of your standard business insurance policy.
Property damage: Your landscaping company damages a client’s driveway in the course of a project.
Employers' liability: A steel beam falls on an employee and breaks their foot, making you responsible for their medical costs and loss of earnings.
Multinational liability: Your business is based in the Republic of Ireland and operates overseas, but you must make sure you’re compliant with local requirements in those overseas territories.
