Excess and Umbrella Liability
Our Commercial General Liability insurance is designed to protect businesses against lawsuits stemming from injury or property damage caused by their products or services. As careful as you might be, there are unforeseen events that can happen to every business. Protect your hard work with a policy that fits your needs.
Whether you are a store owner, office professional or wholesaler, commercial general liability insurance coverages can be customized to protect you against the unique risks and exposures you face.
Our Commercial General Liability policy protects your business from financial loss should you be liable for property damage or personal and advertising injury caused by your services, business operations or your employees. It covers non-professional negligent acts for which you might become responsible
Umbrella Insurance is a type of excess insurance. It works almost the same way as Excess Liability Insurance, except an Umbrella policy can:
- Be applied to multiple underlying liability policies, such as General Liability policy, E&O Policy, Automobile Liability, and many more.
- Drop down when an underlying policy’s aggregate limits are exhausted, or sub-limits are in place
- Cover claims not included in the underlying policies
For an Umbrella policy to cover claims beyond those covered in the underlying policy, your client needs to pay a self-insured retention (SIR). An SIR is the amount of money your client pays before the insurance company responds to the loss. For instance, let us say your client has an Umbrella policy with a $10,000 SIR, and they make a claim that costs $100,000. Your client must pay $10,000 toward the claim, and then the insurance company will pay the rest.
