Umbrella Insurance
Umbrella Insurance is an extremely useful type of insurance that can help cover additional liability risks beyond the limits of the coverage provided by your auto, homeowners and other insurance policies.
Protection from the Unexpected
Umbrella insurance is an important safety net for your finances. If you are sued for damages, part or all of the cost of the damages incurred may exceed your flat-rate liability coverage on a car insurance policy, homeowners or renters insurance policy, or other types of insurance. Umbrella insurance will help you pay for what you owe.
Umbrella insurance is financial protection against loss resulting from a wide range of incidents, from accidental damage to your own car or house to injuries caused by other people. This kind of insurance covers you and all members of your household against lawsuits involving personal injury to others, damage to other people’s property and a variety of claims such as defamation, landlord liability and false imprisonment, depending on your policy.
You work hard for the things that are important to you. For added coverage above and beyond the liability limits of your Auto or Home insurance policies, a Personal Umbrella insurance policy can provide added protection for your assets and future earnings.

Some Typical Situations
Your Child Causes a Car Accident
Risk
While at college, your 19-year-old causes an accident that seriously injures a company’s top executives.
Coverage
Your auto insurance liability limits may not be high enough to cover their medical expenses and lost income while they recover — an umbrella policy can help bridge that gap.
Your Injured Guest Needs Ongoing Care
Risk
A guest at the pool party you’re hosting slips on your diving board and falls onto a stone-paved deck. She’ll be okay — but will need back surgery and ongoing rehab.
Coverage
The cost of this care may exceed the limits of your homeowners policy; umbrella coverage can help with the difference.
