Estimating Your Excess Liability Insurance Needs:

Estimating Your Excess Liability Insurance Needs:

Excess Liability Insurance functions as an additional layer of liability protection beyond your auto, homeowner, or any other personal liability insurance coverages. It helps protect you from liability claims that exceed your personal insurance liability limits.

Calculating Coverage:

To determine the appropriate amount of Excess Liability insurance for your needs, calculate your net worth by totaling your assets and savings and subtracting any debts.  Next, determine the liability limits of your current personal insurance policies.

Determining Coverage Needs:

If your net worth exceeds the liability limits of your personal insurance policy, it may be time to increase your coverage.  However, if your net worth still exceeds the maximum liability coverage available through your personal insurance policy, you’ll require Excess Liability Insurance to adequately protect all your assets.
