Personal Umbrella Insurance in Alabama
Extra Protection When Basic Limits Aren’t Enough
Personal umbrella insurance provides an extra layer of liability protection that goes beyond the limits of your home or auto insurance. In today’s legal environment, one serious accident or lawsuit can quickly exceed standard policy limits. An umbrella policy steps in when those limits are reached — helping protect your savings, home equity, and future income. Our Alabama-based team helps individuals and families add this powerful protection easily and affordably.

Who Benefits Most From Umbrella Insurance
Umbrella policies are especially important for anyone with assets or income to protect, including:
While often associated with high-net-worth insurance, umbrella coverage is also smart protection for middle-income families. Legal judgments can be substantial, and umbrella policies provide peace of mind at a relatively low cost.
How Umbrella Insurance Works With Your Other Policies
Umbrella insurance is designed to sit on top of your existing coverage. To qualify, most insurers require minimum liability limits on underlying policies.
| Auto or Home Policy | Umbrella Policy | Typical Coverage Amount | Typical Cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pays first up to its liability limit | Pays additional covered amounts once underlying limits are exhausted | $1 million, $2 million, or higher | Often a few hundred dollars per year for $1 million in coverage |
Our team ensures your auto and home policies meet umbrella requirements and coordinates coverage seamlessly — whether policies are with one carrier or multiple carriers.
