Personal Umbrella / Excess Liability Insurance

Excess liability insurance provides you additional protection in the event that you are sued. This type of coverage responds when the underlying liability limits of your other insurance policies, such as home, auto and watercraft, are not enough to cover the cost of an unexpected lawsuit or accident.


If you don’t have the right coverage, an unfortunate situation can compromise your financial security.

Liability Claim, Excess Liability Insurance

Here are some of the benefits offered by our insurance company partners:

High Liability Limits

Many of our carriers offer limits from $1 Million to $100 Million.  A conversation with your financial advisor reviewing all of your assets that require excess liability protection will help you select the right limit.

EPLI / Employment Practices Liability

This offers additional protection if you employ staff in your home such as nannies, housekeepers, or gardeners. If you employ domestic staff you can add coverage to protect against wrongful employment allegations and crisis management services to help preserve your reputation.
