YOU ARE VULNERABLE TO SUITS ALLEGING “PROPERTY DAMAGE,” “BODILY INJURY” OR “MEDICAL PAYMENTS” CAUSED BY THE NEGLIGENT OPERATIONS OR ACTIVITIES AT YOUR SPECIAL EVENT.
If someone trips and falls at your affair, there is the potential you may be facing a significant lawsuit due to their injuries. Property damage to the venues is the most common type of claim we see on special events. One or several attendees could suffer from serious food poisoning and you may be responsible for their medical
expenses.
DEPENDING ON THE LAWS IN YOUR STATE, YOU MAY BE HELD LIABLE FOR THE ACTIONS OF INTOXICATED OR UNDERAGE PERSONS YOU SERVED AT YOUR SPECIAL EVENT
The negligent service to an intoxicated or underage person can produce substantial verdicts or settlements. Underage drinkers make up a significant portion of alcohol-related traffic crashes. You may also be held responsible for the actions of those selling/serving alcohol for you. Even if you are ultimately cleared of liability, it may cost thousands of dollars to defend a claim.
There are many important coverage features you should have in your Special Event Policy. Why you should place coverage with us:
