Does General Liability Cover Copyright Infringement?
Usually not. CGL has only a narrow exception for certain copyright, trade dress, or slogan claims in an advertisement.
CGL does not provide broad copyright protection. Its standard Coverage B wording excludes many copyright claims, with a limited exception for certain infringement in an advertisement; claims involving software, products, books, photos, or client work may fall outside it.
Check the exact intellectual-property exclusion and exception, plus any media or professional liability coverage. Confirm which works, services, and defense costs are covered.
