Common Restaurant Insurance Mistakes in Walton County
1. Choosing the Cheapest Policy
The lowest premium often means the highest risk. One uncovered claim will cost more than years of premium savings.
2. Forgetting Business Interruption Coverage
Property insurance covers the building – business interruption covers your ability to make money while repairs happen.
3. Inadequate Cyber Coverage
Basic policies often exclude cyber incidents. With POS systems and online ordering, this gap could be catastrophic.
4. Wrong Liquor Liability Limits
Georgia's dram shop laws mean unlimited exposure. Standard limits are often dangerously inadequate.
