Umbrella insurance is a wonderful thing to consider in the world we live in. It will provide you with more money for your accidents that may happen in life. This can help cover your legal expenses if they were to go over your home or car insurance policy limits. Some insurance companies will offer up to $500,000 in regular coverage, and then offer an umbrella policy up to $1.5 million. This can be a great way to protect your assets if you deem necessary.
You should talk this over with your agent and see what options are available for you. They can also advise you based on your individual situation as well. Different people will require different types of insurance. Ask different questions to find different answers. I have known some people that have found it to be cheaper to get a $250,000 policy for themselves with a 2 million dollar umbrella policy than it was to just get a $500,000 policy. This doesn't make much sense to you and me, but insurance companies have their reasons for what they do. Just ask the questions and you might be surprised what you are able to find out. You can still enjoy a lot of insurance to help you sleep at night, while getting it for a very reasonable price.
I personally recommend going with big name insurance companies. I have some policies with smaller companies, but they are usually for rental property and such. Just call around and see what is available to you in your area.
Some umbrella policies are cheaper in other parts of the country. It all depends on where you live. I have known people to get a $250,000 policy in one area and another to get a $250,000 policy with a $1 million umbrella policy for the same price. It just depends on where you are. Insurance companies factor in many things to determine how much to charge, feel free to ask you agent what they factor in.
