For example, tree surgery and forestry public liability insurance covers legal liability to third parties (i.e. non-employees) for injury or damage to property as a result of negligence arising out of work or goods supplied in connection with your business.
Unlike many other policies, our public liability insurance cover policy does not contain any restrictions on the height at which you work or the way in which felling is carried out. The policy will cover various associated or secondary activities, depending on your requirements.
The policy excess is usually £500. This policy provides one of the widest wordings in the market and cover automatically extends to include: £10,000 death in service cover for any principal, partner or director aged 16-70; manslaughter legal costs and expenses; advice and design cover extension where no fee is charged; no height limits or restrictions to damage or injury caused within the trees radius.
DAS commercial legal expenses can also be included for a small additional premium, providing £100,000 cover in respect of employment disputes, legal defence, statutory licence appeal, contract disputes, property protection, personal injury and tax protection.
Our standard limits of indemnity are £2,000,000, £5,000,000 or £10,000,000, but higher limits are available on request.
