Questions about business liability insurance

What is business liability insurance?

This commercial insurance is an indispensable part of almost all companies and is recommended to almost every entrepreneur and self-employed person.

What does business liability insurance do for me?

Business liability insurance protects against potential damage that you or your employees could cause to third parties, including personal injury, property damage, and financial damage. It also checks whether claims for damages against you are justified and, if necessary, fends them off.

Who needs company liability insurance?

Almost every entrepreneur or self-employed person needs company liability insurance. Damages can occur too quickly, which pose serious financial challenges for the company. For a relatively small amount, these risks can be excluded.

If you work in a consulting profession or similar (tax advisor, doctor, etc.) then professional liability is probably more suitable. Talk to us - or find out more here.

General questions

What does VersicherungsEngel actually do?

We get entrepreneurs and self-employed professionals the right commercial insurance at attractive rates for their specific industry — plus a dedicated expert who genuinely takes care of everything.

Is it quick and easy?

Let's be honest: no business owner is excited about insurance. That's why we make it as easy as possible. Three simple steps — insured within 24 hours if you need it that fast.

Is your service really free?

Our service is, and always will be, 100% free for you. Like most brokers, we're paid by the insurers — but here's the thing: this doesn't make your policy more expensive. In fact, thanks to our specialised industry rates, it's usually significantly cheaper.
