Why Cheap GL Policies Fail

The Action-Over Lawsuit

The Scenario: A General Contractor hires a roofing subcontractor. One of the roofer's employees falls due to unsafe conditions and is severely injured. The roofer's Workers' Comp pays the medical bills. However, the injured employee hires a lawyer and sues the General Contractor directly, claiming the GC failed to maintain a safe job site.

The Financial Impact: A cheap, bare-bones General Liability policy usually contains a hidden "Action Over Exclusion" or "Injury to Employee of Subcontractor Exclusion." It denies the claim completely, leaving the GC to pay $500,000 in settlements out of pocket.

The Wedjat Difference: We understand construction risk. We place General Contractors with premium markets that provide full Action-Over coverage, ensuring the insurance company hires the defense attorney and pays the settlement.
