While your existing insurance policies will provide coverage in most situations, they have limits on the amount of liability that they will provide. A personal umbrella insurance policy will provide the extra liability needed to ensure that you are properly protected.The liability that is provided by an umbrella insurance policy will only €œkick in € when the liability of your other policies has been exceeded to ensure that you are not financially ruined due to one accident. There are many scenarios in which a personal umbrella policy will provide coverage, including:
- If you are in an accident with multiple vehicles ' if you are found to be at fault for a car accident that involved many cars, your auto insurance liability can be easily exceeded.

- If you are a landlord ' when you rent out your home, you open the door to many different risks.
