Your current general liability coverage may protect your business against a minor misfortune. However, it will not be sufficient in the event of a major lawsuit. Umbrella insurance can prevent your business from suffering a catastrophic loss.
Every policy is different, but most umbrella policies will cover: personal injury, bodily injury to others, property damage, slander, defamation, libel, invasion of privacy, defense costs and legal settlements, wrongful eviction, and wrongful entry. It will also cover vehicular accidents that occur while you or your employees are driving company cars for business purposes.
Umbrella insurance kicks in once the limits of your general liability insurance have been reached. For example, imagine that your general liability policy has a limit of $1 million and you are found to be liable for $2 million in damages. In this case, your general policy will pay the first $1 million, then your umbrella policy will pay the second million, saving your business from having to absorb the loss.
Every policy is different based on your business’s needs and assets. In general, a business can have $1 million of protection for as little as a few hundred dollars a year. Our licensed agents can give you an accurate quote for your business.
This depends on many factors. You need to consider the size of your company, your net worth, how many employees you have, the inherent risks of your industry, and how much your employees interact with the public and with customers. Our agents can help you determine the right amount of additional coverage for your business.
