10 to go

This check is for education only and isn't a quote or a coverage recommendation. Every household is different, so talk with a licensed agent before making decisions.

What an umbrella policy does

Your home and auto policies each have a liability limit. If a serious accident or lawsuit costs more than that limit, the difference can come out of your savings, your home equity, or even your future paychecks.

A personal umbrella sits on top of those policies and pays above their limits, usually in $1 million increments. It often covers some claims your other policies don't, like libel and slander.

How we score your answers

Each yes adds to your exposure score, with extra weight on the situations that most often lead to large claims, like young drivers, pools, rental property, and recreational vehicles. Your net worth also counts, because the more you have, the more a lawsuit can reach.

The suggested limit starts from your net worth and steps up when several risk factors stack up. It's a starting point for a conversation, not a final answer.
