What Exactly Is Umbrella Insurance?
Umbrella insurance is a liability policy that will cover you if you’re found responsible for damage to somebody else’s property.
Did you know? If somebody is hurt on or by your property, you may be held liable and need to pay a lot of money for medical bills or lost itmes. Your primary insurance will only pay for a specific amount of loss. An umbrella policy will cover damages — above your primary policies’ limits — protecting you from a financial fiasco.
Picture this: It won’t stop the rain from falling, but it can keep you from getting soaked in a sudden downpour.
Examples of Incidents
These are a few examples of incidents that umbrella insurance may cover if your other policies aren’t enough:
-You send sandwiches to your daughter’s school for their field trip lunch. Many students get food poisoning and their parents decide to sue you.
-Your son gets into a fistfight at school and punches another boy, breaking his nose. The boy’s parents sue you.
-You cause a multi-car accident and your auto insurance (property damage coverage) isn’t enough to replace all the accident victims’ cars. Your personal liability coverage is also not high enough to cover their medical bills.
Note: These are just examples. To learn the details of the policy you plan to buy, talk to your insurance agent!

How Much Does Umbrella Insurance Cost in Minnesota?
As with any other policy, costs will depend on the coverage amount, what the umbrella policy covers, and the risk the insurer evaluates on the policyholder. A $1,000,000 policy might cost $200-$400 per year. The important thing to remember is, if you have large assets to protect, it’s a great value.
