Umbrella Coverage

Insurance policies set limits to control premium costs and ensure that insurers can meet their financial responsibilities and claims needs. However, these limits can leave you exposed to financial loss because claims that exceed policy limits must be paid out of your pocket or go unrecovered. To bridge this gap, you can opt for an umbrella policy which extends the coverage limits of various types of liability insurance policies such as home and auto, providing an additional $1 million or more for each policy you have.

For instance, if you injure another person in an accident, and your auto insurance policy has a $250,000 limit, the medical expenses and lawsuit costs could be much higher. With an umbrella policy, you’ll have another $1 million or more to cover those costs without depleting your savings. Umbrella insurance can also cover situations excluded by other policies, such as when you’re accused of slander or libel.

Umbrella insurance isn’t limited to personal coverage, as businesses can also purchase it to extend the reach of their liability policies. Regardless of how aggressive your liability insurance policy limits are, adding an umbrella policy can be an affordable way to extend your protection and be prepared for whatever comes your way in the future.
