Common questions about umbrella insurance
There's no set amount of umbrella coverage you should have as everyone's different. A good place to start is figuring out what property you have and its value. For example, you could list out your
- House
- Vehicles
- Jewelry
- Baseball card, stamp, or other collection, etc.
After you itemize your valuables, you can get a better idea about how much coverage you may need.
Whether you have a home or not, you may benefit from umbrella insurance. Like with homeowners, a good place to start is figuring out what property you have and its value.
For example, you could list out your
- Vehicles
- Jewelry
- Baseball, stamp, or other collection, etc.
After you itemize your valuables, you can get a better idea about how much coverage you may need.
Personal liability insurance is easier to explain with an example.
Let's say you have an auto and umbrella insurance policy with Liberty Mutual. You have limits of
- Auto Liability: $250,000 per person and a total of $500,000 per accident
- Umbrella: $1 million
So instead of only having a liability limit of $250,000 per person, with an umbrella policy you'd have $1.25 million. Broken down, that's
- $250,000 auto liability
- + $1 million umbrella
- = $1.25 million of liability coverage
Next, let's pretend you or a driver on your policy are in an accident and found at fault. Due to the accident, the other driver has a claim of $800,000 for injuries. Your policies would pay
- Auto policy: The first $250,000 (per person limit)
- Umbrella policy: The remaining $550,000
Now, let's say the same thing happened without personal liability umbrella coverage. Your auto policy would pay $250,000. The remaining $550,000 could then be left up to you to pay out of pocket.
