Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about hospitality insurance in Oregon.

What is liquor liability insurance?
Liquor liability insurance (also called dram shop insurance) covers claims arising from the sale or service of alcohol. If a customer becomes intoxicated at your establishment and causes an accident or injury, liquor liability pays for the resulting claims and legal defense costs.
Is liquor liability required in Oregon?
Oregon's dram shop law holds alcohol vendors liable for damages caused by visibly intoxicated customers. While not legally required, liquor liability insurance is essential for any Oregon business that serves alcohol — the financial exposure without it can be devastating.
What does hospitality insurance cover?
A comprehensive hospitality insurance program typically includes general liability, liquor liability, commercial property, business income, workers' compensation, and food contamination coverage. The right combination depends on your specific business type and operations.
Do I need special coverage for outdoor seating or events?
Yes. Outdoor seating areas, patios, and special events may require additional coverage or endorsements. Premises liability for outdoor areas and special events coverage for one-time events should be discussed with your agent.
How does wildfire risk affect hospitality insurance in Oregon Coast?
Oregon Coast's wildfire risk can affect property insurance availability and pricing for hospitality businesses. Some carriers may require defensible space or fire-resistant construction. Gerald Ross Agency works with carriers who understand the regional wildfire risk and can provide competitive coverage.
What if a guest is injured at my hotel or restaurant?
General liability insurance covers bodily injury claims from guests injured on your premises. This includes slip-and-fall accidents, food-related injuries, and other incidents. Adequate liability limits are essential for hospitality businesses where guest injuries are a common risk.
