A car accident
You or someone in your household, such as your teenager, is driving and gets into an accident. The other party involved in the accident sues you and you are held liable for things like their medical fees or damages. The next step is for insurance to protect you but what if your liability coverage is insufficient for the fees and damages awarded? Without Umbrella Insurance, you will be responsible for paying the amount that exceeds your policy limits out-of-pocket. Umbrella Insurance is helpful because it can make up that difference and cover your debt so that you do not have to pay out-of-pocket.
