Is general liability insurance required in Tennessee? 

Not for every business. General liability may be required for a contractor or home improvement license, commercial lease, client agreement, government contract, permit, or jobsite. Many businesses also carry it voluntarily because third-party injury and property damage claims can be expensive to defend.
