Why Umbrella Insurance?
An unexpected event can lead to property damage or an injury that leaves the policyholder liable. Umbrella insurance will take effect when other forms of insurance, such as homeowners or auto, have exhausted their liability limits.
To determine the appropriate level of coverage for your needs, you need to consider the total value of the assets that need protection, the impact a future income loss will have, and the perceived scope of the risks you could face.
What exactly is umbrella liability coverage?
It is also known as personal liability or excess liability insurance. This coverage does not stand alone. It is a supplement for other insurance policies you already have, such as homeowners, renters, or auto insurance. Its purpose is to kick in after the liability coverage on those policies has been exhausted.
If you are involved in a lawsuit, the amount of the settlement may exceed the limits of your current policies. That is when umbrella liability insurance begins to pay. The financial protection it offers comes into play under extreme circumstances, at the same time protecting all of your assets against possible loss.
In some cases, umbrella policies can be written to provide a more extensive form of coverage not found in other policies, such as slander or libel, and can help with the legal fees associated with it.
