Timberland Liability Insurance from Outdoor Underwriters was developed to help protect your valuable timberland investments. This liability program provides legal liability coverage for timberland owners and was designed to provide general liability protection for owners of vacant timberland.

Under the common law a landowner has a duty to inspect the property, remove hidden dangers, keep the property in reasonably safe conditions, and to take precautions to protect a user from foreseeable danger whether they be:

  • Invitees - an individual or group of individuals who have been expressly invited on the property.
  • Licensees - a social guest, or
  • Trespassers - uninvited guests insured to a lesser degree.

The insurance agreement used to provide coverage states “pay on behalf of the insured all sums which the insured shall become legally obligated to pay as damages because of bodily injury or property damage" caused by an occurrence arising out of the ownership or use of the designated timberland. The legal obligation clause is a broad insurance statement that provides legal protection to landowners that may be held legally obligated or responsible for a negligent act.

  • Automobiles
  • Aircraft
