Personal Umbrella

Extra protection when you need it most.

A liability layer sitting above your auto, home and boat limits, covering bodily injury, property damage and personal liability suits.

Chapter 01

An umbrella is a limit, not a second policy

It does not duplicate what you already have. It sits on top of it. When a liability claim exhausts the limit on your auto, home or boat policy, the umbrella continues from there.

That is the whole mechanism, and it is why an umbrella is usually far cheaper than people expect for the amount of protection it adds.

What it reaches

Bodily injury, property damage, and personal liability suits beyond the underlying limits. The scenarios that make umbrellas worth having are the uncommon, expensive ones: a serious at-fault accident, an injury on your property, a claim that outruns a standard limit.

Chapter 03

The underlying limits have to be right first

An umbrella requires the policies beneath it to carry specified minimum limits. That requirement is not paperwork, it is the reason the umbrella can be priced the way it is.

Reviewing the underlying policies is therefore part of writing the umbrella, and it is often where we find something else worth correcting.
