Common Umbrella Insurance Questions  

What is umbrella insurance?  

A standard liability insurance policy will offer you protection if you have to take responsibility for harm you caused to another person. For example, if you cause a car wreck, then your auto liability policy will pay for damage or injuries that the accident caused another driver.  

However, all standard liability policies will only pay up to certain limits. If a claim exceeds that limit, then you could face a scenario where you might have to cover remaining third-party costs out of pocket. That’s where umbrella insurance can come in handy. If you have umbrella liability insurance policy, then you can file a claim against that plan for the residual value remaining in the third party’s claim. 

Who needs umbrella insurance coverage? 


Anyone who may experience a claim that exceeds the limits of their liability policies may need umbrella insurance to help reduce the risk that such a claim would threaten their financial stability.  


Umbrella insurance may not be right for everyone, so talk with your agent to determine whether adding this coverage to your existing insurance policies is the right move for your situation. 

What does an umbrella liability policy cover?  

With umbrella insurance, you create a mechanism to settle your differences with others, without subjecting yourself to a significant financial strain. You never know when a liability claim will exceed your policy’s limits, but umbrella coverage can help you be prepared for anything. 

A single personal umbrella policy can be used in conjunction with numerous policies at the same time, including:  


To use this plan, you would first have to file a claim against your standard liability policy. Once that policy has maxed out its benefits, you can turn to your umbrella policy to cover the difference.  

Most policies will offer at least $1 million in additional protection, and many will cover liabilities that aren’t covered at all by your basic policies.   

Why do you need umbrella insurance?  

By getting a personal umbrella policy, you’ll open yourself up to a significant amount of additional protection. The benefit of having this plan is that you might never know you need it until you do.  

Suppose that you have homeowners insurance with a liability limit of $500,000. However, a neighbor falls down your steps, sustains a severe injury and sues you for $2 million worth of medical bills, lost income and other damages. That’s a $1.5 million difference between what you owe this neighbor and what your homeowners liability policy is going to pay. You can turn to your umbrella policy to cover the difference.
