Commercial Umbrella Insurance


from Northern Chesapeake Insurance Services

Commercial Umbrella Insurance

A commercial umbrella policy protects you when a catastrophe results in losses that exceed your basic liability coverage. In some cases, it can even broaden your protection.

For businesses with above-average risk exposure (high loss potential, high-profile, a global presence, etc.), higher coverage limits may be necessary. In those cases, excess liability coverage can provide extra coverage above and beyond an umbrella policy.

Examples where a commercial umbrella policy might be needed can include:

  • A customer falls down in your office, severely injuring themselves in the process. The costs of the injuries exceed the coverage of your general liability policy.
  • An advertisement your business placed is deemed misleading, and subject to a class-action lawsuit that exceeds your primary business liability.
  • An employee is injured while operating a piece of heavy equipment on the job. They sue the equipment manufacturer, who in turn sues you for an amount that exceeds your business liability coverage.
