Why is Umbrella Insurance Important?

Many policies are limited in what they cover below the policy’s self-insured amount or specific deductible. For example, if your family car were vandalized while parked on a college campus, your homeowner’s policy would not be liable to pay for damages or repairs under its property damage clause. But your umbrella insurance could cover this claim.

Additionally, if your family owns a large number of assets, umbrella insurance is an affordable way to protect you from high-cost lawsuits. Umbrella insurance can also cover claims related to professional errors and omissions, false arrest, libel, slander, and invasion of privacy.
