Umbrella insurance policies provide additional protection in the event of a lawsuit where you are sued for an amount above your liability limit in a homeowners insurance, auto insurance or watercraft insurance policy. Apple Insurance offers commercial umbrella insurance and business umbrella insurance to companies who want the added protection of umbrella liability insurance. Most people cannot imagine suing an individual or company if an accident occurs. However, a lawyer will sometimes propose a lawsuit because he or she believes they can prove that another person or business was at fault. This attorney may propose filing a lawsuit as a technique to obtain more financial support than the insurance policy covers.
Insurance claims may be filed by individuals injured in an accident, who require rehabilitative therapy, accumulate medical bills, or have lost wages due to the negligence of the person or business at fault. The insurance company initially reimburses claims from the liability portion of the primary insurance policy. The additional liability provided through an umbrella insurance policy is tapped only after the primary insurance liability is exhausted. An umbrella insurance policy is an extremely cost effective way to protect yourself or your business from a costly legal defense. In addition to claims filed for rehabilitative therapy, medical bills, or lost wages, umbrella insurance will also pay legal fees. Click for an Umbrella Insurance quote. |
