Public Liability Insurance

Liability insurance (also known in Australia as public liability insurance) is an insurance cover for individuals and businesses to indemnify against the financial implications of property damage and bodily injury to others. Liability insurance also includes cover for associated legal and professional costs in defending a claim. When you request a public liability insurance quote through this site, your enquiry is referred to a licensed insurance broker who will contact you directly; we do not provide personal financial advice ourselves and may receive a referral fee for the introduction.

Competitive rates

Simply complete our short online quote request form to be connected with a specialist broker and access competitive public liability insurance quotes, including (but not limited to) business liability insurance, employer liability insurance, directors and officers liability, product liability insurance, contractors liability insurance, trades liability insurance, property liability insurance, broadform liability insurance, landlords liability insurance, etc.

Compare Options

Because public liability insurance policies can differ, a licensed broker we refer you to can help you compare features, benefits and costs — not just price — and outline public liability cover options that may suit your needs and budget. Any product or personal advice is provided by the broker, not by this website.

Multiple Insurers

When you submit an online quote request with us, we use your answers to select a licensed insurance professional from our national broker referral panel who is suited to your business, location and cover requirements.

Personalised Service

Public Liability Insurance Online does not provide personal financial advice or claims assistance directly. All enquiries, including quote comparisons, claims assistance and any form of personal advice, are provided by a licensed specialist broker, selected from our Australia-wide referral partner network, who will communicate with you directly after you submit a quote request.

Broker Matching

A specialist business insurance broker from our referral panel will be matched to your enquiry based on your location, cover requirements and the information you provide in your public liability insurance quote request. All quotes, advice and assistance are provided by that broker directly, not by this website, so it is important that you provide complete and accurate answers when you submit your enquiry.
