Liability insurance covers specified legal responsibility for injury, damage, or other covered harm to third parties. Some policies also pay eligible defence expenses, either within or outside the liability limit. A loss suffered by the insured alone is not necessarily a liability claim.

Public liability insurance, professional indemnity insurance, and directors and officers insurance address different exposures. Notify potential claims according to the policy and check who can approve settlements.
