Liquor Liability Insurance

Suppose you own or operate a business that serves or sells alcoholic beverages, such as a bar or restaurant. In that case, it's important to protect yourself from the potential liabilities that can arise from the sale or service of alcohol. Liquor liability insurance can help provide that protection.

What is Liquor Liability Insurance?

Liquor liability insurance is commercial insurance that covers businesses selling or serving alcoholic beverages. It can cover claims related to injuries, property damage, or other damages that may result from the sale or service of alcohol.

Why Do You Need Liquor Liability Insurance?

There are several reasons why businesses that serve or sell alcohol need liquor liability insurance, including:

  1. Alcohol-related incidents can be costly: If someone is injured or property is damaged due to the sale or service of alcohol, the costs can be substantial. Liquor liability insurance can help cover these costs and protect your business from financial losses.
  2. It's often required by law: Many states and local jurisdictions require businesses that sell or serve alcohol to carry liquor liability insurance. Failing to carry the required coverage can result in fines or even the loss of your liquor license.
  3. It can protect your business's reputation: If it is involved in an alcohol-related incident, it can damage your reputation and potentially hurt your bottom line. Liquor liability insurance can help protect your business's reputation and minimize the impact of any incidents that may occur.

What Does Liquor Liability Insurance Cover?

Liquor liability insurance can cover a range of claims related to the sale or service of alcohol, including:

  1. Bodily injury: If someone is injured due to being served or sold alcohol at your business, liquor liability insurance can help cover the costs of medical treatment, legal fees, and other related expenses.
  2. Property damage: If property is damaged due to the sale or service of alcohol, liquor liability insurance can help cover the costs of repairing or replacing the damaged property.
  3. Legal defense costs: If your business is sued due to an alcohol-related incident, liquor liability insurance can help cover legal defense costs.
  4. Settlements or judgments: If your business is found liable for damages related to an alcohol-related incident, liquor liability insurance can help cover the costs of any settlements or judgments that may be awarded.

Third-party property damage coverage

Risk Factors

An intoxicated customer leaves your establishment and goes on to vandalize a building. Liquor liability insurance can pay for the damages and related legal expenses up to the amount of your policy’s limits.

Solution

Liquor liability insurance can cover the cost of repairing or replacing another person’s property that was damaged by an individual who became intoxicated at your business.

Third-party bodily injury coverage

Risk Factors

An intoxicated customer stumbles into another customer at your bar, who falls and breaks an arm. The injured customer sues to recoup the money spent on medical bills.

Solution

Suppose a patron who became intoxicated at your business injures another person. In that case, liquor liability insurance can help pay for immediate medical or legal expenses if the injured person sues your business. Your policy can cover the cost of your customer’s direct medical expenses, such as the ambulance ride and emergency room visit.

Increased cost of compliance coverage

Risk Factors

An overserved patron can cause accidental damage to his property or himself and file a lawsuit against you later.

Solution

If a lawsuit is filed over an incident related to an overserved patron, liquor liability insurance can help cover Court costs, Attorney’s fees, and Settlements.

Libel and slander coverage

Risk Factors

Libel and slander can make your business liable for any sort of expenses or damages to a person mentally or physically.

Solution

For claims of libel and slander, general liability insurance can provide protection, as long as the policy doesn’t have an exemption for alcohol-related claims.

Underage drinking coverage

Risk Factors

Though incidents related to underage drinking cannot be protected against with insurance, you may have legal recourse if the minor had a realistic-looking fake ID.

Solution

It is always better to consult your insurance advisor and get accurate coverage for the same.

Already have Liquor liability insurance? Switching is easy

It might be time to switch insurers whenever the service that your existing insurer provides doesn’t meet your needs. For example, if you have a poor claims experience or an unexplained rate increase, it might be time to consider other options

If you cancel a previous policy before a new policy is effective, you could run into some serious financial problems.
