Liquor Liability for Bars & nightclubs.
Direct answer. Liquor Liability is included in Hedge's published target coverage for Bars & nightclubs under the line Liquor Liability, with a published target of $1M / $2M. The current public class status is review case by case. Hedge must confirm current fit, route, and available terms after reviewing the real account.
Coverage context
What this coverage question means.
Liquor liability commonly addresses specified claims arising from the sale, service, or furnishing of alcohol. State law, alcohol receipts, operating hours, entertainment, security, training, prior incidents, and the distinction between host and commercial liquor exposure can materially affect placement.
Class context. Bars and lounges with door control and trained staff. Nightclubs reviewed case-by-case.
