FAQ

California Business Insurance Questions

Answers to the most common questions from California employers about business insurance coverage.

At minimum, California employers need: (1) Workers' compensation — legally required for any employer with one or more employees; (2) General liability — required by most leases, contracts, and licenses; (3) EPLI — critical in California's employee-first legal environment. Depending on your industry, you may also need commercial bonds, a BOP, commercial auto, E&O, or other specialty coverage. We'll assess your specific situation and recommend the right combination.

General liability is not mandated by California law for most businesses, but it is required by the vast majority of commercial leases, client contracts, and California contractor licenses. Without it, a single bodily injury or property damage claim can exceed your business's entire net worth. We strongly recommend GL coverage for any California employer, regardless of size or industry.

California has the most plaintiff-friendly employment laws in the country. Employees can file claims at no cost or personal risk, and they win roughly 70% of employment jury trials. California's PAGA (Private Attorneys General Act) law also allows employees to sue employers for labor code violations on behalf of all co-workers — with penalties that can reach hundreds of thousands. EPLI is not optional for any California employer that values financial security.

A commercial bond (surety bond) guarantees that your business will fulfill its obligations to clients or government agencies. California requires bonds for contractors (CSLB license), auto dealers, mortgage professionals, and many other licensed trades. If you are bidding on government contracts, working with clients who require bonding, or applying for a California professional license, you likely need a bond. We handle license bonds, performance bonds, permit bonds, and specialty bonds quickly.

We aim to be on the phone with you within minutes of your inquiry. After a quick consultation, we shop across 50+ California-approved carriers and typically deliver same-day quotes for general liability, workers' compensation, EPLI, and commercial bonds. Call (323) 600-3807 or submit our short form to get started right now.
