What Is Personal Umbrella Insurance?
A personal umbrella insurance policy gives you additional liability protection above and beyond what your home, auto, boat, and/or other policies would provide. Umbrella and Excess Liability insurance policies are designed to be additional layers of coverage above primary insurance policies.
In the event of a liability loss, a personal umbrella policy is a great way to protect yourself from a lawsuit that can impact your current assets and your future earnings as well.
