What insurance does a small business need?

Most small businesses in Illinois start with general liability insurance. If the business has employees, Illinois law requires workers’ compensation insurance. Many business owners also choose a Business Owner’s Policy (BOP), which bundles liability and property coverage at a lower cost than purchasing them separately. Service-based businesses may also need professional liability insurance.
