What Is General Liability?
General liability, or CGL, is the base layer of business protection. It covers claims that your operations hurt someone or damaged their property, and it pays for settlements, defense costs and judgments. Most small businesses carry it inside a BOP alongside coverage for their own equipment and inventory. We write GL with a wide range of carriers and match your type of business to the one that rates it best.
Why General Liability Matters
A single injury claim can cost more than a small business makes in a year, so the limits and the carrier both matter. Plus, most customers and general contractors want a certificate of insurance before you start work. Without active GL, you don't get the job.
Who Needs General Liability?
Just about every business: contractors, retailers, restaurants, landlords, service providers, consultants. If customers set foot on your premises, you work on other people's property, or you sign contracts, you need general liability in place.

Local Considerations
Cleveland County counts 24,671 nonemployer establishments per Census Bureau QuickFacts (2023) — solo operators, side businesses, and independent tradespeople — and most of them have no liability protection at all until their first big contract demands it. We handle certificates of insurance fast, so a paperwork requirement never costs you a Norman or OKC metro job.

Client Stories
★★★★★
Oklahoma Insurance Group has handled my small business insurance for over 11 years. They handle workers comp, general liability, and automobile insurance (we have about 10 vehicles insured at any one time). One of the great things about OIG is that every year like clockwork (without me having to ask) they are shopping my coverage and checking rates to get up the best balance between coverage and price. For our upcoming, they were able to reduce our auto by switching companies by over $41K. This is serious savings and allows us to continue our steady growth here in Oklahoma City and pass those savings on to our customers. It is also great that they can handle my personal stuff as well. Home insurance, automobile (inlcuding motorcycle). They shop those policies every year as well. One stop shop for me. And when I need them for a claim or accident, they walk me through the process. We are proud to partner with Russ and the crew at Oklahoma Insurance Group. Justin

We have had a great experience with Russ and his group. He found us the commercial insurance policy we wanted that others couldn't get. He is also very quick to respond which is greatly appreciated. We recommend this group for your insurance needs.
★★★★★
Russ was awesome to talk to about our insurance. He found gaps in our policy that would have hurt us in a claim situation. Our coverage now is top notch thanks to Russ and his team. We highly recommend calling them for any insurance needs commercial or residential. Thanks again Russ
★★★★★
We had Russ review our commercial insurance policies and he found several gaps in coverage that left us exposed financially. Russ explained everything thoroughly and saved us a ton of money! We feel much more comfortable with Russ on our side. From a business stand point. You are losing money by not giving them a chance.
★★★★★
Jovy and Russ and the folks at OIG are always friendly professional and available to answer questions. We have always received prompt service and competitive insurance pricing for our investment property.
