Business insurance · New Jersey
Protect the business you built.
From a customer slipping in your dining room to a work van on the Turnpike, we help NJ businesses put the right coverage in place: general liability, a business owner’s policy, commercial auto and workers’ compensation.
BusinessWhat it covers
What a business policy can cover
Most small businesses need a few of these working together.
General liability
The foundation. Covers injuries to customers and damage to other people’s property, plus the legal costs that come with a claim.
Business owner’s policy (BOP)
Bundles liability with property coverage for your equipment, inventory and space. Often the most affordable way to insure a small business.
Workers’ compensation
Required in NJ for nearly every employer, even with one part time employee. Pays medical bills and lost wages after a workplace injury.
Commercial auto
Personal auto policies can deny claims when a vehicle is used for work. If a car or van is part of the job, it belongs on a commercial policy.
Professional liability
For advice and services. Covers claims that an error or a missed deadline cost your client money, sometimes called E&O.
Business interruption
Replaces lost income when a covered event, like a fire or a storm, forces you to close while repairs are made.

New Jersey notes
What NJ business owners need to know
A few state rules and realities that shape your coverage.
Workers’ comp is not optional
New Jersey requires workers’ compensation for nearly every employer, including businesses with a single part time employee. Operating without it can bring serious penalties. We will get you compliant fast.
Your lease probably requires insurance
Most NJ landlords ask for proof of general liability, and many require being named on your policy. Send us your lease requirements and we will issue certificates that match them.
Homeowners coverage does not cover the business
A home based business is usually excluded or capped on a home policy. If clients visit, you store inventory, or you work at other people’s locations, you need separate coverage.
Flood is a separate policy
Standard business property coverage excludes flood, a real issue near the Shore and along New Jersey rivers. If water could reach your space or inventory, ask us about adding it.

Questions
Business insurance questions we hear every week
Is workers’ compensation really required in NJ?
Yes. Nearly every NJ employer must carry it, even with a single part time employee. The penalties for operating without it are serious, and it protects you too: in most cases it is the injured employee’s remedy instead of a lawsuit.
What is a BOP and do I need one?
A business owner’s policy bundles general liability with property coverage for your equipment, inventory and space, usually cheaper than buying them separately. For most small storefronts and offices it is the right starting point.
I formed an LLC. Do I still need insurance?
Yes. An LLC shields your personal assets from business debts, but it does not pay claims, defend you in court or satisfy a landlord or client contract. The business itself still needs coverage.
My landlord or client asked for a certificate of insurance. What is that?
A certificate is proof of your coverage with the limits they require, often naming them as an additional insured. Tell us what the contract asks for and we can usually issue one quickly.
Does my personal auto policy cover work driving?
Usually not fully. Commuting is fine, but deliveries, transporting tools or driving to job sites can fall outside a personal policy. If a vehicle is part of how you earn money, ask us about commercial auto.
