09:11 PM Tom_L: A: A certificate of liability insurance is a single sheet of paper that summarizes the benefits of an insured party's insurance policy. In short, it is proof of your insurance coverage and limit of your policy. Part of its value is that it contains extensive details about an insurance policy on a single sheet of paper.
