Umbrella Policies Extend Your Coverage

Posted by on December 17, 2009 | No Comments

An insightful look into how umbrella policies supplement the liability coverage you already have through your home and auto insurance and provide an extra layer of protection.

From the resource: “For example, if you have a home insurance policy with liability coverage of $300,000, the umbrella policy will pay claims above $300,000, up to the limit you select, such as $1 million. Or if your liability limit on your car insurance policy is $250,000 of bodily injury protection per person and $500,000 per accident, your umbrella coverage kicks in after you exhaust that coverage.”
