Umbrella Insurance

An umbrella policy is nothing but excess liability insurance. It goes beyond the coverage included in the insured homeowners', auto, or watercraft insurance. It is best suited for situations where the bills exceed the base policy value. This policy is usually purchased by people with expensive property or people due to things that can cause injury. Additionally, if one is engaged in activities with a higher expectancy of lawsuits, this policy is better. Most common people who prefer this policy includes landlords, sports coach, high-risk sports participant, or one involved in review business. The fact to note here is that the policy is vital as it is an additional safeguard to you and your property. The policy is one that starts to work for you when the limit for the standard liability coverage is breached.

Fast facts about Umbrella Insurance

What is a personal umbrella liability policy?

The personal umbrella liability policy is designed to increase your liability protection. This single policy is an extra liability insurance coverage that acts as an “umbrella” over all of your other personal liability policies — home, auto, boat, RV, etc. — so you have a higher personal liability limit than what would otherwise be available. In certain circumstances, an umbrella policy may provide personal liability coverage that is otherwise excluded from your other policies. For example, your auto policy may only provide coverage in the US and Canada. With an umbrella policy your coverage may be extended internationally whether you are driving a Ford Focus in the United States or a Hyundai Sonata in Korea. Basically, your umbrella insurance policy covers the gaps in your other insurance policies.
