What is commercial umbrella insurance?

A commercial umbrella policy provides liability coverage over and above what you already have with your general liability insurance, commercial auto insurance, and workers compensation insurance. If a large claim exhausts your underlying coverage, your business umbrella insurance will cover the rest, up to the limit you choose. 

In addition, a commercial umbrella policy will cover the legal fees while defending or settling your lawsuit. And in some cases, it may even provide coverage you did not have with your underlying policies.

Unfortunately, it's not hard for someone to sue a business they've dealt with, creating a lawsuit that you'd need to defend against. Spend your time working on your business rather than defending it.

How commercial umbrella insurance can prevent large claims and lawsuits from emptying your pockets

You’ve worked hard to build your business. Too hard to let a claim or lawsuit drown you in legal fees and headaches.

Legal representation

You’ve got a claim and now you need a lawyer. Who should you call? How do you know if they’ll do a good job? Your insurance company will hire the best attorney to defend your business so it’s one less thing for you to worry about.

Defense costs

Even the smallest compliant could cost tens to hundreds of thousands to defend. An umbrella policy will cover the cost of defense, over and above your general liability coverage limits.

Judgments and awards

Getting sued is miserable. But having to pay out would be much worse. Twenty-five percent of small business judgments cost those businesses an average $500,000 or more.
