Personal Umbrella Insurance
Ohio Personal Umbrella Insurance provides an added layer of liability coverage when a high-cost catastrophe or accident that exceeds the limits of your current coverage occurs. Once the liability coverage on your Homeowners or Auto Insurance is exhausted, you may be financially responsible for any additional legal expenses, costs of property damage, medical costs for personal injury, or death claims. Serious injuries incur steep medical expenses, as well as payments for pain, suffering, and lost income. Death claims incur funeral and burial expenses, survivor expenses, and more.
Many people have the misconception that Umbrella Insurance is only for wealthy people. They think they don’t have enough in the way of assets to warrant this coverage, but that’s simply not true. While it’s true that it’s an important coverage for high-net worth individuals, Umbrella Insurance is valuable protection for just about anyone. Ask yourself these questions: Do you have a home or car that could be forfeited to pay damages? Wages that could be garnished? A college savings account or retirement fund that could be seized?
When the Worst Happens, are you Covered?
In Ohio, Personal Umbrella Insurance kicks in when you’ve exhausted the liability limits of your Homeowners Insurance, Auto Insurance, or other policies.
