Umbrella Coverage
Helps increase a business’s liability protection when a claim or lawsuit maxes out the limits of the business’s current coverage. In the event of a devastating lawsuit, the amount of liability protection from a business’s general liability insurance, commercial auto insurance and employer's liability policy may not provide enough financial protection. If this happens, underlying policy limits are used first and commercial umbrella coverage limits only kick in after those policies have reached their limits. Coverage for telecommunications and integrated services businesses includes policy limits of up to $25 million and comprehensive, catastrophic liability coverage.
