Common Umbrella Insurance Questions
An umbrella policy adds additional liability coverage above and beyond your other insurance policies, like auto or home insurance. Best of all, one umbrella policy extends coverage on multiple underlying policies. If, for example, you’re responsible for an auto accident that causes $750,000 of bodily injury damage and your auto coverage limits are only $500,000, an umbrella could kick in to cover the additional $250,000. If you didn’t have an umbrella in the previous example, you’d be responsible for paying the $250,000 out of pocket.
Most umbrella policies won’t take effect until a certain claim amount has been reached, such as $500,000. For that reason, most insurance companies require you to carry that amount of coverage on your underlying policies. For example, you’d need to have a liability limit of $500,000 on your auto insurance in order to purchase an umbrella policy. This ensures you don’t have a coverage gap between the limit of your auto policy (or other underlying policy) and the start of your umbrella policy coverage.
