3 Times You Might Need Umbrella Insurance

Umbrella insurance isn't always the first choice for many individuals or business professionals, but it should not be overlooked. Many people don't realize the value it can offer in everyday life. This type of insurance provides more coverage than a traditional auto, home or business insurance plan does. This makes it very valuable in cases of lawsuits or fines. 

While your traditional insurance policy helps protect you from unexpected losses, umbrella insurance goes beyond this to provide a higher level of coverage beyond your current limits. It is one of the most valuable types of personal or commercial insurance. When should you have this policy in place? a woman walking in the rain holding an umbrella

You're a Landlord 

If you own a property and rent it to someone else, having umbrella insurance is very important. Your risks are higher in this situation and a basic policy may not provide enough coverage. Most landlords need landlord insurance, but the additional coverage that umbrella insurance can offer beyond underlying policy limits is often essential. You may also want to consider the value of requiring your tenants to maintain renters insurance. This comprehensive selection of policies can save you substantially in the event of a claim. 

You Own a Dog 
Any type of dog could become the target of a lawsuit. A simple misunderstanding can have your home on the line. If your dog bites someone, even if that individual approaches your dog and instigates the attack, it could lead to an expensive problem. The medical treatment, pain and suffering and other losses that individuals have in relation to the dog bite cost you thousands of dollars or more. With an umbrella insurance plan, you reduce the risk of having to pay these costs out of pocket. 

You Want Peace of Mind 

Unfortunately, there are many situations in which your current liability insurance policies may not be enough. If you are involved in a multi-car accident, this can lead to high liability costs. If someone visits your home and is seriously injured, this too can lead to a very expensive lawsuit. Umbrella insurance reduces the likelihood that you will need to pay out of pocket for these costs. 
Umbrella insurance isn't something for only high-risk individuals. It is something that most people can benefit from, especially if you have a home insurance policy or auto insurance policy with lower coverage limits. Discuss your options with an independent insurance agent today.
