If you have Professional liability insurance why do you need general liability insurance?

Answer 1

Professional liability insurance will protect you against lawsuits arising from your actual professional services rendered. Suppose you have a consulting business, and you are sued for providing incorrect information, that would be a professional liability. Insurance agents and Accountants need a similar coverage called Errors and Omissions. Doctors and Lawyers need Malpractice...

General liability pertains more to premises coverage for your place of business, to protect you against situations like a slip and fall. General liability would also cover any damages or bodily injury that your business caused while at a customer's location. It would also cover you for your products or completed operations of your business. Most general liability policies specifically exclude professional liability.
