Sample questions & answers

1. A personal umbrella policy primarily provides:

Additional liability limits above the insured's auto and homeowners coverage

A personal umbrella adds liability limits over underlying auto and homeowners policies and can cover some claims they exclude.

2. For a loss the umbrella covers but the underlying policy does not, the insured typically must first pay:

A self-insured retention (deductible)

When no underlying coverage applies, the insured pays a self-insured retention before the umbrella responds.

3. An umbrella insurer generally requires the insured to maintain:

Specified minimum underlying liability limits

Umbrella policies require the insured to keep stated minimum underlying limits; if not, the insured bears the gap.

4. When underlying limits are exhausted by covered claims, a personal umbrella policy generally:

Pays covered amounts above the underlying limits up to the umbrella limit

Once underlying limits are exhausted, the umbrella pays covered amounts above them up to its own limit.
