Umbrella Insurance

Extra Protection When Your Other Policies Run Out

One serious accident can exceed your home or auto policy limits by hundreds of thousands of dollars. A personal umbrella policy is the most affordable way to protect everything you've worked for.

Coverage That Has Your Back

Every policy is built around your situation. We review what you have, find the gaps, and make sure you’re protected before you need to file a claim.

🩹

Bodily Injury Liability

If you cause a serious accident and medical expenses exceed your auto policy limits, umbrella covers the difference, up to $1 million or more.

🚗

Property Damage Liability

Covers damage to other vehicles, structures, or property that exceeds your underlying policy limits in an at-fault accident.

⚖️

Personal Injury Offenses

Protects against lawsuits for libel, slander, defamation, or invasion of privacy, the kinds of claims a standard policy doesn't cover.

🏠

Landlord Liability

If you own rental property and a tenant is injured, umbrella coverage steps in when your landlord policy limits run out.

🐕

Animal-Related Incidents

If your dog or other animal injures someone and costs exceed your homeowners limits, umbrella can help cover the remaining expenses.

🏛️

Legal Defense Costs

Covers attorney fees and court costs for covered claims, even if a lawsuit is ultimately dismissed. Legal defense alone can cost tens of thousands of dollars.

Frequently Asked Questions

An umbrella policy adds a layer of liability protection that kicks in when your home, auto, or other primary policies hit their limits. It typically starts at $1 million in coverage and is surprisingly affordable, often $15–30/month.

If you own a home, have savings, or earn an income that could be garnished in a lawsuit, you need umbrella coverage. Without it, a judgment against you can reach your personal assets, savings, investments, even future wages.

Most people start with $1 million. If you have significant assets, own rental property, have teenage drivers, or have a pool or trampoline, we often recommend $2–3 million. The cost difference is minimal compared to the risk.

Umbrella covers most personal liability situations, but it excludes intentional acts, business-related liability, and some other specific situations. We review your specific risk profile to make sure you have the right combination of underlying and umbrella coverage.

To qualify for umbrella coverage, you typically need minimum liability limits on your home and auto policies. We review your existing policies as part of the process and make sure everything is coordinated correctly.
