Commercial General Liability Insurance

Explore commercial general liability insurance through Shepherd’s primary casualty offering for construction, renewable energy and power risks.

General liability within a connected casualty program

Commercial General Liability is part of Shepherd’s Primary Casualty offering, alongside Commercial Auto and Workers’ Compensation. Brokers can discuss these lines together with one underwriting team rather than approach each placement in isolation.

Shepherd supports commercial construction and renewable energy and power accounts. The primary casualty offering includes admitted or excess and surplus placements, customized policy forms, industry-specific endorsements and controlled insurance programs. The structure available for a particular account depends on its operations, location and underwriting review.

Annual operations and project-specific needs

An annual contractor program and a project-specific placement involve different exposures. When discussing an account, explain who performs the work, the scope of operations, the project or portfolio involved, and any contractual insurance requirements. The underwriting team can then discuss the relevant structure and how primary coverage fits with the rest of the program.

For higher layers of liability protection, explore Excess Casualty. For property under construction, explore Builder’s Risk. Each addresses a different part of the account; final coverage is defined by the issued policy.
