Umbrella insurance

The cheapest dollar of protection you can buy.

A personal umbrella adds $1M or more of liability protection on top of your auto and home policies — for the day a claim blows past your underlying limits and reaches for everything you’ve built.

Starts around $20/month · shopped across multiple A-rated carriers

Umbrella Insurance
What’s covered

The protection that matters.

Extra liability

Adds $1M–$5M of coverage above the limits on your auto, home, and watercraft policies.

Legal defense

Covers attorney costs — often on top of your limit — if you’re sued for a covered claim.

Broad situations

Libel, slander, and certain landlord liabilities many people don’t realize their base policies exclude.

Asset protection

Shields your savings, home equity, and future earnings from a judgment that exceeds your other policies.

Good to know

Straight talk, no jargon.

  • Most $1M umbrellas run roughly $15–$30/month — pennies relative to what they protect.
  • Carriers require minimum underlying limits on your auto and home first; we set those up correctly.
  • If you have teen drivers, rental property, a pool, or a dog, an umbrella is rarely optional.
Common questions

Umbrella questions.

Still wondering about something? A real advisor is a phone call away.

Do I really need an umbrella?
If your net worth or future earnings exceed your auto/home liability limits, yes. A single serious at-fault accident can generate a judgment far beyond standard limits.
How much does it cost?
Typically $15–$30/month for $1M, with each additional million costing less than the first. It’s the highest protection-per-dollar coverage in personal lines.
What do I need to qualify?
Carriers require minimum underlying liability limits (often 250/500 on auto and $300K on home). If you’re not there yet, we’ll adjust those first.
